front bumper..

http://i6.ebayimg.com/04/i/000/b1/68/0e3c_2.JPG

i hated this front end(thought it looked something like a white storm trooper helmet) when i first saw it in 2000, but its grown on me over the years. 2 bumpers and 2 accidents later, im contemplating on buying it and starting from scratch.

i did a "search" but didn't weild any good results.

i know its an erebuni creation, but they dont even have it on their site anymore. anyone know what material its made of, or maybe where i can find it?

SKILLZ's bumper was DAVE@SE's bumper and was modified... some of the holes were smooothed out.

I'll give you some history.

When I first got my Galant I bought this kit direct from Erebuni, it took about 3 months to get to me back in the day. It held up real good and I could tell it was made nice.

I then got hit in the front when some lady put her car in reverse and floored it and she hit me and the old bumper was demolished.

My insurance company/body shop ordered another bumper from one of these cheap companies that made the knockoffs that you are posting. It was not made by Erebuni. The bumper was the biggest piece of crap. I had a ton of rock chips in it and a ton of cracks in it from flexing so much. The bumper pretty much disenegrated on me.

I then ordered one of the last bumpers direct from Erebuni again, as a matter of fact I think it was the last one in their warehouse because when I talked to them on the phone they said it was the last one. I even had it overnighted to me because I didnt want anyone else to snag it. The bumper held up fine and I could tell the difference between the knockoff bumper and the Erebuni bumper. The erebuni bumper had more reinforcement and fiberglass compared to the knockoff.

My advise is if you do go with the knockoff, I would reinforce it and add more fiberglass to it, if not it wont last either. I hope this helps.
