Thumbs up Anyone buy off ebay?

Just looking at this bumper on ebay and wondered if anyone has had experience with this seller (lambodoorskit)

He is based in st andrews so if anyone lives around there do they know about his shop/unit

He has 100% feedback with a lot of people buying from him but just want to make sure his stuff is a good fit. here is the link to the bumper:

Fiberglass i reckon the bottom of the bumper will get covered in chips in next to no time.

It's a copy of the INGS+1 bumper, it will almost certainly be fibreglass. Did you notice in the ad that it must be test fitted before it is painted - sure sign of poor production quality.
