jeremyh Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Hi all, Was having a good day up until about 3:30pm this afternoon when I made contact with the car in front of me . My Do-Luck front bumper took the full impact despite me driving between 10-15mph, I guess this is the price you pay for fibreglass bodykits The front bumper is literally in pieces, it's shattered in the very middle and all the fixings on the left-hand side have broken so it's just hanging on the car My question is, where can I get a new front bumper (not necessarily a Do-Luck, open to suggestions), sprayed and fitted for around the £500 mark? My dad is reckoning around £1500 is more realistic I would appreciate any offers of advice or bumpers for sale Thanks Jez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Speak to Albert at Knight racer. He can supply, fit and paint. As for £1500 You can get a car sprayed for that never mind a bumper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Class One Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Try Knightracer. They're a forum trader and have keen prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobbeh Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 If it needs repairing you might have to pay a little more as theres more work involved More than £500 for only a front bumper would sound steep to me though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egrossi Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Well Jeremyh, Only recently someone did a hit and run on my Bomex wide mouth front bumper and after a conversation with Knight Racers for £500 you could have it supplied, fitted and painted for that. Good luck and sorry to hear as to see her wrecked is a nightmare but trust me when its all over she looks stunning. All the best Milly.

jeremyh Posted April 24, 2007 Author Share Posted April 24, 2007 Thanks for the advice guys and gals I've just had the pleasure of going outside with the gaffer tape to hold the bumper on the car It's well beyond repair, so a new one is really the only way to go. One thing I had noticed is that the Do-Luck bumper (as I understand it) was made to fit with the rest of the Do-Luck kit, hence the not-so-tight fitting of the bumper around the wings. A factory Toyota bumper is not going to look right on my car, but I would prefer a better-fitting bumper than the Do-Luck one I (used) to have. Any suggestions?
