the bumpers are being fine sanded and perfected. The wood is in place to hold the bumpers steady and in place before the mold is made.

I sent them an e-mail they did not respond yet. I think there would be a demand if the price is not like the fender covers from lorinser for about $1400.00 each! for me all the other parts of the bodykit are not as important as the fenders.

You can not beat the price. The only concern I have is that I talked to the bodyshop I use and it would cost about $1200 or more to put it on and match the paint.( for a perfect job)
