Rear Bumper + Diffuser
Hey Guys,
I'm looking to buy a new rear bumper (not the diffuser) as it has a pretty noticeable dent/scratch (got lightly rear-ended a while ago) that's the size of about a quarter. (But is deep as sh*it lol) Anyways, someone local is selling one for $300 CDN (About 255$ USD), unpainted and in perfect condition. Does that seem like a good deal?
Also I have two CF diffusers for sale if anyone is interested (locally preferred (Vancouver)).
-One doesn't have the mounting clips and has a couple tiny cracks. The cracks are noticeable (but probably fixable if its painted
). Looking to sell it for $50 + shipping.
-And my other CF diffuser is brand new With the clips (like OEM diffuser) but a couple of the clips is cracked slightly, looking to sell it for 100+shipping. (no shipping payment needed if bought locally) If anyone's interested, let me know.
Reason I'm selling them (mainly the second one) is because I have to replace my whole rear bumper and want to go back to the OEM C63 diffuser.

$255 USD sounds reasonable, although I'd check junkyards to find one in your color first to save you from repainting and running the risk of shade variation.

I've seen repaint from dealer body shop come back slightly off before. Body shops dealer deals with doesn't automatically make it the best....could just be cheapest for dealer at OK level workmanship.

I've seen dealership body shops totally srew up on paint-matching. A bumper that is slightly off, however, shouldn't be noticeable. Many car companies have their bumpers painted at different locations than the the rest of the panels, so the paint lots aren't the same anyway.

Sorry took so long guys. Looks like I'm going to keep the new one with the clips (put it on my car today), but here are some pics of the other one that has to be drilled in. (It looked fine when I had it on but I wanted one with the clips, I'm picky.

In pics 2 and 3, you can see the small damage. Price for the spoiler is $60 locally, or $50 + shipping otherwise. (Shipping won't be cheap, I'll get estimates if your really interested)

Ok so here's an update to what I'm selling:
CF Diffuser (Pics above). Comes with 4 pre-drilled holes. It's in perfect condition with the exception of a crack in two spots. Condition 7/10
$40 + Shipping (Or $50 Locally)
CF Diffuser (No Pics Yet). Comes with the OEM mounting clips built in. (One fell off (but doesn't make a difference in fitment)). Perfect condition with the exception of one hole on the side corner (had that spot drilled in for perfect fitment (with black screw)). Condition 7/10
$100 + Shipping (Or $100 Locally, no Shipping Charges)
PM me if your interested. They are both in the same kind of condition, except one is worth more because it has the OEM mounting clips. They are real CF and not fake. The reason for the low prices is because I want to get rid of these and get the OEM C63 one back on. (Like the look of matte on it)
Cheers
