If I bought it for a flip I wouldn't have went through the past 3 weeks of trying to get it painted lol odds are I'm keeping it but after test fitting it I wasn't and I'm still not sold on the look. That's all so instead of sitting on it I offered to see if anyone else was feeling it more than me and would like to shoot me an offer. I will probably button up the install tonight or this week. The car can't move because it needs new tires and an alignment so it's just patiently waiting.

You wanted a step up and you got it. I have an Amuse front/Nismo on the rest on mine. Thats what its all about. Give your car its own look. I think the members here would commend you for doing this.(oh they already have)
Im actually in shock right now your trying to do this.

The juicy part:
Everything that i went threw as well for you to have it? Shipping, epic tape packaging etc..etc.. I had a list of local buyers that really wanted all my stuff your selling now. Guys that seemed loyal to the forum. Guys like yourself that would of put a car part before their GF lol .im sure there upset now .. I would be.. Be honest it feels like a kick in the nuts to our community and to me bro.lol I didnt sell my Nismo parts for a flip, you know that! It was to help.
Sorry i just feel like i got played. this is my way of smoothing my conscience.
+1. Wow Brandon, I can't believe you are selling this awesome front bumper that you just got off of an unreal deal from antfd3s. There were other members were fighting for it and antfd3s was so kind and let you snatched it. I even bumped it for you. Now I feel like a kick in the nuts too. Lol. Dude, it looks really sweet on your car I don't see any reason why you should sell it...

Fine, lock this up before me not really sure about liking something I desperately wanted and sunk $1000 into backfires. It looks good but not sure it works for me with factory sides. But I'm not going full kit on this car. I like oem+ and a clean look and that was my hope and goal. I appreciate the comments but before I get any more negative feedback for not liking something the way I thought I would, I will just remove this from the market .

I Didn't deceive anyone, I was drooling at the idea and have never even seen a Nismo in person up close until I test fit it on my car. I appreciate the opportunity and I guess it's best to let it grow on me for the sake of everyone's thoughts on me selling. :-\

Sorry guys...

Lock it, please. Not for sale.

NEGATIVE! You will regret it later.

But then again, I'm prejudice.

TJ's car was the inspiration for mine. Love the color and appreciate the ground breaking work for the rest of us.

You want me to show you how many ppl were feeling this bumper? my inbox was full within its first hour posted a FS thread on it..lol
OK, all of a sudden your not feeling the look on your car and you like the OEM Fang look instead. Awesome..So why sell everything for 2Gs? You only have at least a G into it if that..Thats a flip!! This is the part when my nuts start to bind up..Did you forget how much I gave you all that Nismo stuff for? I wouldnt doubt u got the paint done in your partners shop so you saved money there as well...that paint wasnt even dry yet and you just so happened to be there? RED FLAG I know i might be tad bit harsh but I feel as member of this forum this doesnt feel right..

What the... ? I bought this thing and wasn't sure I liked it once I saw it in person mounted. I threw a high number (or best offer... I just had no idea what to price it at) to persuade me to give it away if someone wanted it. I drooled over a Nismo hence me having wtb threads. But, once I mounted it I just wasn't in love like I thought I would be. I paid full price for body work and paint. It's through a dealership and he cannot use their stuff for his personal profit.

I really had no intention on selling this so the accusations are a bit much. Even if I were, I bought the thing by offering more than asking price and I've put over double that into it including me driving it an hour away there and back in my jeep and so forth. It took him 3 weeks to get it back to me as of Friday.

I've done nothing wrong... It's no longer for sale anyway so relax. Maybe you will let me trade it for an amuse or something in the future or is that not ok either? Sorry I'm heated but in no way shape or form was I intending on flipping anything. God forbid I end up not liking something as much as I hoped... :-\

And forza, while I appreciate the support*... You didn't bump it for me. I was the second person to reply to the post and by replying I immediately offered to pay (double his asking with shipping) which I did pay that night after he allowed me to. I did and still do appreciate him shipping since he preferred local. But I hope I made it worth his time. His price was a great, unbelievable deal. Once it grows on me I'll appreciate that even more.

Again, sorry I questioned me liking it. Apparently that was a huge huge huge mistake.

Again. Not for sale.

Sometimes things look different once it's mounted. I don't see anything shady about that.

I don't know about all the negativity, my thoughts were based on originality and my own personal opinion. I just didn't want you to end up kicking yourself down the road. I wasn't intending to be negative, at the end of the day its your car and what you like. If you don't like it that's your deal no-one else's.. Sorry if I came off as anything else.
