MSport bumper ebay seller, what do you think?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/51118055828-...3D171488816220
is this legit? can anybody tell me if they've ordered from here before and if the bumper comes painted? Im looking for an Msport bumper for Alpine White F30. Thanks!! 350 seems like a very good price, i just don't know how to select the color of my choice and whether this seller is legit. |

I wouldn't. $350 for a painted bumper? They have to be cutting costs somewhere. I've bought bumpers from Ebay with no problems for ~$250-300 unpainted and made sure the paint was done properly.

They maybe used ones with minor problems with tabs missing, scratches and stuff. Might very well still need a good paint job.

These are used bumpers taken off wrecked cars. I wouldn't do it. I'd buy the bumper from europartautostore on ebay for $340, and then for a couple hundred, get it painted and installed at a reputable body shop.

Per their store...towards the bottom of their page.
"Read!!! Please look at the pictures and the Item Description for condition of the parts listed. Used parts might have light scratches or other imperfections." You get what you pay for......

talked to the guy on the phone and ordered a bumper. These are used bumpers but 100% OEM and the seller is a good guy. He sent me multiple pictures of the bumper in the color I wanted and was upfront about any marks. The one I purchased had very tiny rock chip marks in 2 spots. I saw the pictures of the entire bumper and for 380$ this bumper is worth it to me because its fully painted and OEM. Also I might add, the air intakes on the side of the central grill are not included. It is your call if you want to buy them or not (I probably will) through getbmwparts.com. At the end of the day you have to get lucky. If they have the bumper in your color and in good or near perfect condition you are good to go. If not then there is no point because you will need to get it repainted anyways. Contact the seller and ask, he will answer any of your questions.
But to each his own. If you want to pay for a new bumper and then pay for paint on top of that to be safe I can't fault you. |

Its funny I just sent this guy a few messages for an M sport bumper in glacier silver but the one he had was too scratched up. I decided I will go with the Selma M3 rep bumper for $350 shipped and get it painted. I hope it works out for you!
