I bought this bumper a few months back. I won it for $1 on e-bay. It was a pick up only auction, so I drove about 40 minutes for it, no biggy. It is a Garage Vary (GV) knock off. It is fiberglass. I went to put it on my car yesterday and it needed some trimming to properly fit. Once I got it lined up I noticed that you see the front upper radiator support directly under the top of the bumper. I believe this can be solved with some fiberglass work or whatever, but it's not worth my time.
Like I said, I paid $1 for it. If you are interested in this, you need to come here and pick it up and take it for FREE. I'll even drink a few high quality beers with you (which I will supply) and talk MT.net ****. Otherwise, I'll back over it with my truck and call it a day.

 

Oh yeah, in case you wondered how bad assed this bumper would look...click on photo's of this guys car: Doppelgänger
I wanted what he had, but I realized I can only be slightly cool and not the coolest.

 

damn what a deal

 

I live in south africa and though I dont need the bumper,I thought hey this sounds like a awesome guy,though I visited the states on a couple of occasions I never really had time to meet people ,next time im there im calling road trip!Who ever picks up he bumper,have one on me,and cheers!happy BS talk over mt.net!

oh and if no one picks it up back that **** up with the truck.pics please!

 

In for video of you backing over it with your truck.

 

I think I should set a deadline for this. Ok, if nobody schedules a pickup by Friday, it's getting Fucked up on video. I need to add something good to my youtube besides just 1 drag video. There. You have until friday, World.

 

Sound is 1 thing, but sight is better. If you came here and saw the awesomeness, you would **** yourself.

 

I have this exact bumper on my '99. The gap at the top can be fixed, but it does take some work, however it's never quite as good as the real GV bumper.

 

What kind of work would it take to fix and would you take beer money to ship it? I actually just trashed my '99 bumper and I really like the way this one looks!

 

This will be fun! I'm not gonna lie.....I would almost rather see it get fucked up by the truck. lol

 

You could mount it the way it is, but it won't look super awesome. Beer money? Buy me a case of Chimay Red, and a case of Lagunitas Chocolate Stout and it's a deal. Where are you located at?

 

does this fit an NA?

 

Texas, 77494. Care to descrbe the issue more in depth? Like is the gap between hood and bumper too prominent?

edit- dont care too much, my car is a piece of **** and ill make it work, but still id like to know what im dealing with. Worse comes to worst Ill spray it all flat black and call it a day. Race car, not show car.

 

any chance you'll ship it?

lol, sort of close to me, but yeah, i'd rather watch a video of this thing getting destroyed.

 

no.

 

I'll ship it. See post #11.

 

The issue is more work to simply box it up and ship it than it is for me to make a fun video smashing it. The gap between the hood and bumper? I don't know what that'll look like, but there won't be any gap between the bumper and a 42" tire if nobody arranges anything by Friday!

 

I remember when I had one without intercooler....can look a bit odd.

(real GV)


The gap along the hood line can be fixed by taking the bumper support and trimming it up. This supports it from the middle and "props" it up. The bumper support needs the lower half cut off and the corners trimmed up. It's not hard work. I had a knockoff on my old car at one point and was able to get the gap to go away. Even the real GV can get that bad gap without the bumper support under it.
