I purchased from this company as well. They have been on the car nearly 9 years.
Fit was not perfect. there was a gap on the passenger side. not huge but very obvious to someone who knows to look. But the cost was cheap. I paid $300. Too bad I over-payed on the painting but the color match was good and the paint has held up well.

P.S.
I would NOT recommend using a fiberglass rear bumper or front bumper if you drive the car daily. Fiberglass front and rear is fine for a show car or garage queen. The bumpers sit low to the ground and sooner or later your are going to bang into something like a high manhole cover, road kill, junk in the road, or come into contact with a steep driveway. Once fiberglass breaks, a fix to it will not last. it will crack again in the same place. especially on a convertible that rattles a lot.
Go with the factory GT3 bumper or a polyurethane aftermarket (so as long as the fit is good). I will be painting my factory polyurethane front bumper for the 4th time and the rear for the third time. If these were fiberglass forget it right in the dumpster bin.
