This company is False Advertising Custom Front Bumpers. They have stolen pictures of other members vehicles using them for advertising including mine. You might want to check to see if they are using yours as well.

I would love to see them replicate my front bumper that Ash made for me, aka VIPclk320.

I sent them a copy of the original picture, they want more pictures to prove that the car is mine. They said it's a picture that I could have found online but isn't that the point? They found a picture online that they are using for advertising a front bumper which they didn't even make or sale.

They also have a picture of VIPclk320 Car too...smh

Good afternoon Jimmy,
We thank you in advance for submitting your pictures for our comparison. We have attached images of our product, which isn't an exact copy of your bumper, but slightly modified (different fog light bezels and different mesh grill). Please note that we had used the previously mentioned images because the images of the installed bumper on our customers car did not come out too well. We will be removing the images that we have on our website by the end of the night. Please feel free to contact us with any comments, inquiries, and requests.

Many thanks in advance,
Jung Kim

Best wishes,

Far from Similar in my opinion.

Definitely far from similar and its awful that they tried to copyright your bumper, but if that white bumper really doesn't look awful. It's more than likely fiberglass, but other than the handful of bumpers made by VIP, it is one of the better looking aftermarket w208 bumpers I've seen.

All in all they seem like a sketchy disreputable company though.

Williams707

That makes me question if any of their pictures on their website are theirs. Now knowing that he thought my bumper looks like his also questions how much he really knows about cars....smh

Now that I'm back in the US, hope the bumper Ash made for me lasts on these streets. Roads in Japan was awesome.

That is definitely copying your original. I like it, except for the side louvers. If they would make me one without the side louvers, then I might buy one. I find that the aftermarket bumpers are hollow shells, which lack the proper mounting points underneath, and would require a lot of custom work. It would be great if someone actually made one that was a direct bolt-on that does not require the entire under structure to be custom fabbed after purchase. They never show you the back side in pics of these custom bumpers.

Move to Phoenix. Smoothest roads in North America over here

I have a CLK430 2003 convertible. Love the car, but the front bumper is cracked and I would like to replace it, instead of just trying to repair it. I love your bumper. Where coukld I found something similar? Price? fog lights integrated?
I am in Canada.
Thanks
