What is your opinion on the condition of this bumper? Would you sell it?
















The reason I ask is because I recently purchased it from boostedricer. I was told that this bumper had minor issues. When I received it I noticed it was covered in bondo and missing/broken tabs. This is junk!!! Funny thing is that i paid $50 for the bumper and 125 for shipping. The kid thinks i'm bogus for wanting a full refund. Your thoughts please!!!

Hope you get you money back for the oversized paper weight


Yeah I will. He just denied my dispute so I'll escalate to a paypal claim and let them resolve it. I dislike dealing with kids.

Let us know how this turns out with PayPal. Will the seller return your money - but the majority cost is shipping to and from which seller is not responsible.

Regardless, an inexpensive lesson in life that may save you significant bucks on any future deals.

It will always be a buyer beware law of the land when purchasing used parts.

Good Luck!


I thought I was going to save money by getiing a used original bumper. Ends up that I should have just had the body shop take care of it. Basically I could have spent $50-75 more for a reconditioned bumper. When he told the cost for shipping, that's when I specifically said it needs to be in good condition with minor flaws. He said the paint cracked, not that its covered in Bondo and the Bondo is what cracked off. This deal is bogus and should have happened. I would never sell junk that's not worth your time or mine.
