Last year I sold an ASM tow hook to someone in TX and when he sent me pics of his car it had the same rear bumper on it. He even told me he was thinking about selling it but I passed because it was a single outlet. The car looked like roja_boy's asm build, which was on the cover of modified magazine many years ago. If it is that car then I don't think it's fake.

 

its fake, let me buy it

 

This is what he posted.
thoughts?

 

Here is the inside of the bumper. My only question is the crack looks like it’s been repaired before by the driver side tail light/quarter panel. How long will a fiberglass repair typically last?

 

lol

it looks authentic to me, the crack should be repairable by any reputable body shop and not propagate if repaired correctly. gl!

 

I thank you for tagging me as an OG like I know something, however I am a complete ASM noobie and general doofus. A+ nice e-compliment though.

That said, if it is a fake it is a really good one. But as people who know ASM seem to think its real, I’d defer to them.

 

Quick update. I picked up the bumper today. After speaking with the seller he indicated he purchased the car in Cali from a guy who bought it from @Ro_Ja Boy . Bumper appears legit to me, the owner is installing an 08 ASM instead. Definitely need to repair the crack and will be dropping it off to a reputable body shop to assess. But super excited about the find.

I’ll be sure to post up photos once I get it painted and installed.

 

Nice! That's the earlier ASM rear bumper modeled after the AP1 rear. Awesome find.

 

@512S2k The rear bumper is real.


in other news. My car is coming along slowly.
Currently on the rear :
