Hey style , where are you taking your brand new bumper @ $68 , just checked @ Courtesy Parts : $ 230 , fascia only , nothing else .

sorry it took a bit to get back been busy under my rock,i was wrong about the price i had another altima come in today for another bumper heres a pic of my invoice etc..

this ones from cetifit,

the other pics were my cost of materials,i charged 250 for this job..

OEM or aftermarket?

OEM or aftermarket?

aftermarket,any car with over 10k miles thats what the insurance pays for even on brand new cars..

most manufactures have learned to just buy their parts from aftermarket companys instead of manufacture them in house ford and lexus buy from the same vendors..

TYC Genera | Original Equipment Manufacturers & Suppliers

so there is not much difference in the end..

Got it back and it looks amazing! Im so happy it came out right the firs time.

I couldn't hold my smile back when I was inspecting the work. Its so perfect, I still need to take it into the sun to see what kind of swirls need removing. But I cannot see any solvent pop, runs or anything like that. The orange peel is pretty good, actually a tad more smooth than my factory paint in some spots, but over all the orange peel match is good.

Im happy it turned out the way I wanted, but also makes me kinda sad because the rest of my car isn't doing to well.

Anyways, I have a bumper to be proud of. On with the pics! See that dust? I told them to not wash anything, and they obliged. Going to give it a bath tomorrow.

looks good!!
hows the color match on the fenders,thats the hardest part to get a perfect match without blending..

even if you dont paint the sides and just clear them the clear changes the tone...

They did a fantastic job matching both the color and flake.

Here are some pictures.
