Look decent, wonder if it'll fit as good as it looks. If so then fair play.

Quality looks good in the pics, would be good to see one on a car unpainted to see how the fit was.

because the sun fades paint etc and is exposed to a million contaminants, if i spray something the factory colour of my car its not going to match, thus why wings have to be blended in, some peoples flame red cars are different colours due to fade

with each paint colour for any colour theres a list of varient shades which the painter has to pick the best one of to match the original paint. how can this be done without the car?

Yeah i understand that, It seemed like Ed was saying just because it was a replica that the paint would'nt match.

So how is this any different for a fiberglass copy, or a plastic original?

why do so many have a problem with these

guy has made what looks to be a decent quality bumper and is selling them for a decent price. Quite possibily alot better than alot of fibreglass tat being sold.

So what he has copied a 'irmy' bumper woop de fucken doo

copyright, let him worry about copyright.

If they are good quality the will sell well

good luck with them

My Uncle that is a sprayer always says that the genuine plastic parts are much easier to get a good paint match than copies. Dont know why though?

Plastic over fibreglass is the reasoning behind the paint match / mismatch

For some reason!

But a good painter should be able to get the match anyways.
