Front Bumper

I love this forum. That said, after two years of being too busy to fix my front bumper on my 430CLK, I called and purchased a bumper from VIS RACING. I have to say that I was very disappointed with them. I told them my make and model as well as year and they said they have a bumper that would fit and no extra changes needed. SO I bought it. I took an additional week to come and when it did, realized that the fog lights are not the same as my original car.

I called them and they stated that I would have to purchase new foglight system if I wanted them to fit. I told them I just wanted a bumper that I told you I needed and they said they could not do anything since I opened the box already.

So for all those out there looking for new bumpers be very careful.

But I love this site. Made everything very easy to do--just time consuming.

I just bought a oem 320 bumper off craigslist to replace my ripped 430 one cause there were no 430 bumpers I could find he also added some smoked side markers but it didn't come with the strip the 430 strip didn't fit on the 320 bumper the shop made it fit every thing else was good. But I wish I bought that 209 bumper look it is sick

How much did you pay for your bumper?

Thanks,
