WARNING!!!! DO NOT SEND MONEY TO THESE GUYS!!!(11/17/2011)edit by moderator:

For those of you thinking about doing this....this was the message I received from them after TWO WEEKS! I even had to contact them asking for the progress of the bumper!!!!

"We apologize but we are going out of business.
Please open a dispute you*credit card company and bank
to file a chargeback on this transaction"

DO NOT TRY AND ORDER FROM THEM!!! I now get the joy of trying to get my money back

Ordered the bumper painted from Pershing Auto Body Part in Illinois for $355 shipped: http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/terminator-talk-229/608698-pershing-auto-body-parts.html

Finally got around to installing it Saturday. Everything went smoothly, came with the brackets to mount to the fenders and 2 rivets but I had to run to Ace anyways for push pins, nut/washers/bolts anyways. Fit and finish is just like stock. Even has the factory orange peel!

Will get some better pics but need new brake pads, front tires and need to cut the springs hopefully by next weekend. BTW Ford wanted around $650+ for a painted bumper.

That is a pretty good deal. I'm considering

Why? Rock chips are a fact of motoring life. :shrug: Or did you mean "say goodbye to the rock chips you had".

The bumper came out awesome. Great price. Color matches well. You're good to go. Certainly is a relatively inexpensive fix for a rock chipped or scratched/torn bumper.

Is that an oem bumper or aftermarket? I need a new one as well.

I think it did as well. I hate to drive the car now...No problems getting to work today(18 miles) No surging or anything, I guess the air bubble worked itself out. Cracked the degas cap last night and again this morning and air came out, only needed a little top off so....

:lol: You get dyno'd?

The pics of the bumpers on the ground it looks like the new one might be a shade darker but after installing it and pulling it out in the sun and under low light in the garage I cant tell the difference whatsoever. :rockon:

Im sure Ill be saying hello soon enough to some new ones. I may get a 3M clear bra if I feel like spending more money. New tires and brake pads this week

No Ford part #'s on it. I guess its aftermarket but I can't tell the difference whatsoever.

Doesnt look like they carry them. See if there's any Certifit Stores near you and call them. They might have one

Just checked Pershing and they lowered the front bumper down to $199!

I was looking into them a while back. Didnt know how it would turn out, but I must say they did a great job. Looks great!

Yes, I meant goodbye to the old ones. To say hello to new ones would be kinda mean as he just got the new one on.

The bumper looks good!:thumbsup:

How did they ship it? Was it boxed or just wrapped with bubblewrap? I've heard some horror stories about the way some large items like bumpers are packaged for shipping...:nonono:

I called Pershing today to look into getting a silver metallic front bumper. They told me that they had stopped selling painted bumpers and were only doing primed now. Bummer. I found another place in Charlotte that does it on Ebay with a similar cost though.
