Thanks I edited my post. But... I was never in a pinch? I immediately offered you double what you were asking. I appreciate the deal and shipping it but I'm not sure what you want for your actions? I wasn't a charity but you listed it cheap and I jumped on it because it was what I was anxiously searching for! It just didn't wow me once I put it on like I thought it would. I was very excited to get it and stoked to put it on... Then... I stood back backed it out took 100 pictures and said... "Ehhh... It's not bad"... That's not the reaction or feeling I wanted to get from it.
Aside from a thank you and your money... I'm really not sure what more you want? I truly appreciated the deal but, regardless, I still have sank more than double into it (I paid you more than $250 with all said and done. Double. Then I have my fuel (an hour each way) plus dealership body shop rates (I trust him to take care of me) because my other buddy that owns a shop was in Toledo for basf training. He would have been cheaper. So again, I'm not sure why I have to justify my feelings about my car or get approval to list something for sale. The price is justifiable and primarily set to offset the lowballs that were certain to follow. As for your LTH, if you didn't put any more money into them and drive a 15mpg jeep 2 hours, etc then no, I would not "expect" you to triple the price. However it wouldn't be held against you if the price you list them for is reasonable in comparison to the market value. Again not for sale now. Last edited by BrandonSS; 06-16-2013 at 11:57 PM. |

Who cares if the guy makes money off a bumper you sold him? Thats life learn from it.
To the OP if you do not like it sell it. A front lip will need sides and maybe rear spats though or it will look "off" to you as well.

With a proper color match like he got your going to pay a decent penny for. Take away the cost of shipping add the cost of a good paint job they may have been out of it for 800-1100 dollars local.
His cost of the part, shipping, travel, paint is probably around 1200-1400 dollars. Like he mentioned by the time someone offered him less and he took it he isnt making much if anything. At least he painted it properly and didnt ruin the piece. One of those other people could have cheaped the paint job and made their car look like crap. What justice would that do for our car when the public sees it? None. This thread annoys the piss out of me. Quote:

Well I can see how some's balls feel busted over this resell, but the harsh reality is, people always do this kind of thing, it's all about the benjamins! But I agree passing on the good faith deal would be a good thing especially if he got a killer deal.
Maybe if he decides to sell it he adjusts his price a little? Especially if he got a homie hookup on the prep and paint? It cost me $650 to paint and prep my front Nismo bumper...

Yeah unfortunately my hookup was out on training and booked for being a week behind in his business. Like I said, the price was literally thrown out there and set to absorb the inevitable lowball offers.
For now I'm gonna rock it. Maybe someday it will come back up. Hopefully with less backlash. |

It wasn't just a nismo bumper. It was its diffuser and under tray as well.
Anyway I'm over it. Just know when I sell more of my stuff to you I'm charging gas, an oil change, s&h wear & tear on my tires. And all that. Lol Last edited by antfd3s; 06-17-2013 at 08:23 AM. |

Shame on you BrandonSS for not liking this bumper and then trying to resale it.
I know Brandon personally, and I know he had no ill intentions of doing anything shady. His only downfall is that he is the most indecisive person that i know.

Yeah, you need to keep it on even if you don't like it.

Ik your sarcastically speaking but that's actually in the ballpark. Plus the cost to rotate his jeep tires and lunch. Jk Brandon we all gotta find some comic relief out of this situation. I apologize I really wanted you to be on come up build w your Z. You only need to sides and rear kit. Btw I don't want anything from you but a little bit of..Pay it forward. Bless the next guy that's desperately seeking a Nismo hookup. You member that type of guy right? Lol
