Agreed.

My last bumper had them painted. I think for this one I'll try and find some smoked units.

I ordered the smoked E63 units off ebay and they went in just fine. I'm far from a mechanic and it was no problem.

E55 w/ goods, Z32 Project underway
Very nice.

There is a clown with bad feedback selling a damaged bumper on Ebay for $1000 for months. I offer him $50.00 every once in a while. Guess nobody told him a new one from parts.com is much less.
