Ebay Europarts Autostore Bumper
hey guys,
Just wanted to let everyone know to not buy the after market bumpers on eBay. I got mine from euro parts autostore and the fit meant was shit. The front had big gaps on the inner head light and the rear diffuser they provided did not fit the bumper either. They are accepting a return but I have painted the bumper lmaoo. But I lost $800 due to these shitty ass bumpers. we own bmws so don’t put aftermarket parts on them especially bumpers. |

My rear bumper, side skirts and pretty much all my exterior mods are bought from Ebay. All fitment was 95-100% but like most aftermarket parts you have to make adjustments. Why on earth would you paint your bumper without checking first for fitment issues? Pretty much most aftermarket parts are usually all made from the same manufacturer

My dumbass paint guy put it on without test fit when I had clearly told him to fit it. We settled on half the job. But the bumper had horrible fitment. The rear diffuser didn’t fit into its own bumper and the front has huge gaps on the headlight part.

If you still have gaps alot of times it's a matter of playing around and making some adjustments. My DTM carbon fiber diffuser didn't fit perfectly and it took me a good couple of hours to make it fit. And before I sent the rear bumper off for paint I removed the diffuser cause I knew the shop was gonna have issues removing it and reinstalling it. Even with test fitting the bumper I had to make several adjustments

I’ve actually heard these bumpers are 95% to oem fitment but I have to agree with others in that should have test fit before. At least the company is still working with you. Figure most would have probably not accepted a return after paint.
