$500 for the set of 5 pieces which includes the 2 end pieces, 1 center piece and 2 bumper overriders.

This is a set of front bumper which I bought a few years ago to mount onto my coupe. I have since acquired another brand new set hence the availability of this one.

The set was brilliantly rechromed by the previous owner except for the right end bumper which is a brand new Bmw unit. I believe this piece alone is well over $500 a piece. None of these bumper pieces have ever been mounted.

There is a very small nick (about 1/16") on top of the center bumper piece, athough it is hardly noticeable. I've tried to photograph this nick and it just does not show up in pictures. This was damaged due to some improper packing during shipping. There is one major issue with the right bumper overrider, apparently the piece was repaired and not bent back into it's proper shape prior to chroming. It is slightly longer, therefore it will not sit properly during the bumper assembling. I've tried to bend it back into shape but the metal is simply too hard. If you have a good condition overrider then I suggest you use it instead.

If this was a perfect bumper set then I would probably sell it for about $900. If you have priced any of the individual components then you know $500 is a very good deal for this package. Rechroming bumpers are very expensive as well as most of us know.

Also included are 2 new oem metal mounting strips for the bumper rubbers. These will have to be riveted onto the 2 end bumpers.

Please PM me in interested or for more info. Sorry, I'll accept Paypal only. Shipping to US and Canada only. UPS or FedEx ground will be about $30-$35 and slightly more for Canadian shipment.

Thanks,
Bert

The overrider on the left is slightly longer then the unit on the right. Rust has also developed on the interior surface on the piece only. This rust condition is very customary on most chromed bumpers, even very nice ones.

coupsters, this is a good deal from a very honest person ,I have met and dealt with Bert you can rest assurred all will be as described. bert did you fit that new bumper yet?
 
Thanks for the kind words TJ! Being the procrastinating type, no, I've not installed the new bumper that I bought from you. That was one great deal that you gave me.

How is your coupe sale coming along? Great coupe for $25k! If I were looking for another CS, I'd not hesitate to buy it. The coupe basically needs nothing being such a fantastic condition car!

Bert:

Arghh!! I just finished buying a used bumper set (for $300, which I thought was an OK price), and paying to replate it. Spent a bit more than $500 in total - I agree that Bert's parts seem like a good deal.
