What a day! A set of bumpers and an air dam from Alberto arrived yesterday... delivered by Alberto himself! The best part about my car disease/addiction hobby is the wonderful people I have the opportunity to meet. Alberto is the latest. A gracious and warm gentleman I happily add to my list of "I'm lucky to know him" folks.
But OK, OK, what about the parts? Having done a fair bit of composite work myself, I can tell you these are NICE parts. The finish is wonderful and they are nearly ready for paint. The bumpers are super light while the air dam employs a much thicker layup schedule (see the pic of its upper edge), just as I'd expect. One of my Porsche buddies was here when Alberto arrived. He reviewed the parts and said "These look so nice, you should just run them raw, as is!"
He's a bit of a track rat/weight wennie but his comment goes to how good all these items look in their natural state.
Yes, I'll bond the three front bumper sections together and feather the seams ahead of final finishing but I couldn't be happier. Now add to all that the price? Buy your set now, before Alberto realizes he should be charging more!

Your best bet is to message Alberto through this forum. His screen name is aguirola.

Hello Albert,

I would be most pleased to produce a spoiler and front and rear bumpers for you.
I would require a $400 deposit for the 3 parts. Delivery in March.

Rear bumper: $375
Ft Bumper: $400
Ft, Airdam: $ 425

There has been a slight increase in prices, as materials have gone up in cost.

Please confirm: alberto.guirola at gmail.com

Thank you.
Kind regards,
Alberto

Hi Alberto - Happy to help in any way. And no, I didn't receive any pics of the rear bumper. Please do send, when it's convenient.
Thanks again,
Chris

Hello bumper friends of the lovely E9.

There are now available in No. California:

1. front bumper, complete, mounting brackets, etc..
4. rear bumpers complete, mounting brackets, etc. . Please note: No holes for license lights, as easier to drill than to patch
2. Front Airdams

Prices are as follows, unfortunately, $25 more than the previous set. Even resin has gone up in price...

Rear bumper: $400
Ft Bumper: $425
Ft, Airdam: $ 450 (small additional fee of $30 for the "Sporting goods" excess baggage.
As I brought 4, $120 shared between the 4.

If you are interested, please reserve your part(s) ( refundable, if change of mind) and send $100 to hold, to:

nicole.guirola at gmail dot com

The people that paid a deposit before this, prices are as before for you.
I tried reaching out, but possibly away for the weekend.

Please contact me to make final arrangements, etc.
I will be here until April 12, please be prompt, as packaging, shipping, all take time. Later, it is more complicated, as I have to ask a friend to ship.

Thank you all for the kind support.

Regards, Alberto

1. Front bumper avail.
5 Rear bumpers avail.

0 Airdams. left Thank you guys!

If you need rear bumpers and are in the SFO Bay Area, go to SF Don, has some right there.
Save on the shipping.

By the way, what did today's outing rewarded us with?

A new project....
Stay tuned, sometimes by summertime, we'll have a batch. I am assuming a part that has deteriorated in many cars.

Please, some feedback, so I can figure out if I should produce only a few, or, more.

Regards, Alberto

Right now difficult to assess, as we have to take the vents apart and evaluate the mould making process.
I will have a better idea towards the end of April.
I am traveling on coffee business now, so right now it was only a sneak preview.
Thank you for your patience.

Regards, Alberto

Not sure how the CSL bumper thread morphed into defroster vents but, FWIW, buying a fiberglass CSL front bumper is a LOT cheaper than making a similar bumper out of steel, which is what we did for my car. Off to chrome now...

Hello Jeff, beautiful work there, I can only guess at cost. ;)

The defroster vents were only a shared information to see if interest is there.
We will post properly in another section once we have definitive numbers.

Regards, Alberto
