Feed replica bumper
So I'm going to purchase a Feed style front bumper. I was going to buy one from Shine Auto but I see that VIS also makes one. Has any tried the VIS version, or is a guy better off to spend more and get the Shine Auto version?

I bought the vis one and not one part of it fit right. Complete waste of money imo.

LOL at this thread. One neg reply and OP abandons his idea. Consider that after market body panels for replacement of damaged panels need some work to get fitment correct. Having a body shop, that has experience with AM body kits, install a body panel is the best course of action.

I've had a few aftermarket bumpers and I've ended up spending more on man hours then what I saved on a cheaper bumper, that's why I was looking for actual results that people have had.

Right on. if you search the forum there are tons of posts about bumper kits. I found this in another thread. my point is, dont discount something because one person may or may not have used the product. I only take what someone says seriously(in regards to fitment) if thy post images that THEY took. anyone can google search for images.

Well, I figured if I would need to modify the kit anyway, I might as well get the VIS version...

Thanks for your input.
