The other thing that hit me was service was not due as a customer, it needs to be done right in every way unless asked. I almost went with the Stillen front end but backed out...I want classic...original...the way it was, that is why I pay for insurance. Last edited by mjohn617; 04-06-2011 at 12:19 AM. |

Guys, if they just paint over it with matte black, and he gets a rock chip, it could make a really ugly white paint chipping

So we just got our car back on Monday, everything looked great. They replaced the bumper and found the proper paint code. The bumper is actually grey from the factory, the center has a black paint code, kind of interesting. I would post some pics but there isn't anything special now, just looks like the day we bought it.

That's wassup. When I saw the front section color matched, I was actually shocked. It's not that I didn't like it, it was just something really wrong with it. glad you got it squared away. Oh yeah........props to your wife.

So after all that, the center is actually painted? Bumpers don't come primered from the factory, they come in bare black plastic.
So...either the shop blew smoke up your a$$ and just fixed the original bumper by painting the center and made up a story or it really was painted, in which case... I still don't see the point in ordering a new bumper. Oh, and I hope you didn't pay your deductible.

It's just laziness, the shop did a great job but the attention to detail was just ****. |
