No way, I wouldn't pay more than $50-$75 to have it installed by a "professional".

Pay me $200 for my airfare and ill install it for free!

Hey a heads up. this bumper is back on ebay. i'm not the seller or making a dime on it. but i love this bumper and suggest that anyone looking should get it.

i put in a bid of $500. i didnt win. seller wants $700. not a bad deal. hopefully he's still around in the summer next year, as i really really want this bumper. just can't justify spending $700 right now on a bumper with the car in the garage stored.

bump,

Just read on Rennlist that DPS Motorsports received a big shipment of GT3 front bumpers. I'd make him an offer between $650-$900 and see what he says.
The usual list is $950 but maybe the prices are coming down now that its an older part (unlikely). He also sells the sideskirts usually. I think he offers painting of both. Wish I had opted for that.
