Hi,

I'm french guys ...

I just received my replica front bumper ASM by EXTREME DIMENSIONS / DURAFLEX
This is just HORRIBLE !!!!!!!
Nothing going !
The finishes are non-existent.
The fiber is very brittle!
I just lost 400 euros for a product of shit!
I am very disappointed for this product.

Look my pictures -_-'

Yep, my friend got an ASM bumper from Extreme Dimensions too. It fit about the same as that one. The body shop charged him $1700 to make it fit. He could have gotten a legit one for how much he spent total.

As far as fitment goes, yup you get what you pay for. Also, all the talk about fiberglass in this thread makes it sound like the bumpers are made of egg shells rather than fiberglass. I honestly don't know anyone that constantly hits stuff or bottoms out on their bumper? if you do, then you have driving problems! Fiberglass is pretty resilient to cracks unless you hit things hard.

Tour friend paid $1700 to make a cheap cumper fit? When he could have purchased one through Shine with 0 fitment issues.....

Cant agree more. I support good quality or better replica's. I use all Shine products minus a few things here and there.

agreed. even though mine is an amuse replica, it is fiberglass. i have hit a freaking armadillo 30mph and my bumper did not crack and tire debris, that was kicked up from other cars, nailing my bumper going 75mph. even going down a steep incline or decline one side of my bumper would drag on the ground, still fine, other than the part that dragged on the ground of course, but no cracks from flexing. all these things about fiberglass cracking from a pebble, psh ok.
