AdzC Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 If you can afford a genuine bumper then by all means go for one as although I don;t have personal experience other members have spent the same amount of money (+ in some occassions) getting a replica to fit. Alternatively there are traders on here who do replica kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra_si Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Mate, they offer a full fitting service, i would deff go down that route then if theres any problems they can deal with it, its easy for them to sell rubbish on ebay as they know by the time you get it to a body shop their returns policy will have expired. if they rate them so high they will be able to fit the kits that they are creating, i wish i had done that. i bet they have a few exact fits for customers that pay for the fitting service, the rest of the bodge jobs they fling on ebay to unlucky customers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexJames Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 I brought a replica knowing that it wouldnt fit. It was a nice project for me.. BUT it was a PITA to fit! and still doesnt really sit right... supra owners would know, but general public cant tell. You get what you pay for basically!
