Just be wary of these bumpers, most of these have had a low speed impacts. Thus dont show any real damage, but have been slightly deformed in the process, so when you try and fit them, they dont line up perfectly!

Just hoping that other dont make the same mistakes ive made, someone nudged into the back of me about a year ago, was a very very low speed impact. Didnt even break the paint or any scrathes. However the bumper got deformed, thought i would get some one to take it off and reattach it.

Tried that but it just wouldnt line up, so bought a used one, got it painted and it just wouldnt line up right. Got them to send me another one, test fitted it this time without paint and again just wouldnt line up. After the 3rd attempt, i gave up and just bought a new one.

Thanks
