I need to repair my 06 gt bumper, these are advertised as painted. Is the finish really that good, or will I still need to paint it? I was wating to take it off and fix it during blower install, but the price is pretty good from these guys.
Thanks in advance
Doc

These are great, I ordered one for a customer. They are factory painted bumpers and body panels and other parts that have been removed and discarded from performance manufacturers such as Roush, Saleen etc... due to the fact they use their own bumper skins and rims w/e.

+1 they are cost effective replacement if you're interested in the stock look.

There may be a chance though that during shipping the clearcoat may crack if mishandled but complaints of that have been few so far. Still some clear is not the same thing as having to fixed a badly dented or gashed unit.

I once purchased new take off leather seat covers at a great price. I don't think you can go wrong.

I scraped a side skirt or whatever it is called and bought a set of take-offs. (couldn't buy just one)They looked better than the ones that was on the car. Not to mention cheaper than going to Ford and buying a set, and having them painted. My experience was great and i hope yours will be too.

I've ordered two bumpers through them and they've been pretty good. Nothing worth getting repainted.

I just purchased some leather seat covers from GAS supposedly they were take offs from Iacocca Silver Anniv. Mustangs. I too got a great price ... $249
I'm stoked... how difficult was the install? Did you do it yourself or have it done? Any info is appreciated.
