hey guys i got an invader front bumper that doesnt fit...the bodyshop guy said that with alot of fiberglass work you could get it to fit so im going to post it on here...i was thinkin about $100 and you pay for shipping cause its so big...but if ne one is interested let me know

Also...its still in some green primer....and the only time it was out of the box was when it was at the shop...mostly all the smoothing work has been done and it needs to be painted....but like i said it needs work

I went out to the shop when they were trying to put the bumper on and it looks like it needs to be extended to fit but im not an expert

dont listen to them. To make it fit you bolt in on.. then extend your headlights forward and it fits perty darn fine.. any bodyshop will tell you no...

quoting someone on these forums: "What do you mean it does not fit?" "Make it fit"

No bodyshop likes to do extra or cutom work for same rate. offer them a hefty price and they will be all over you.. or do it yourself..

take the bumper out yourself, sit it dead center on the ground infront of your car get general feel of it.....headlights in the rights spots ect....

if so the remove the BOTTOM lip from the top BUMPER and try and put it on like that (98% of the time this helps A LOT)
cool you got it to fit on pretty nicely? good stuff now bolt on the bottom lip and your back in business.....

oh no that didn't work?! well wat needs to be done
you gotta widen the bumper the headlights are too close together?
you gotta extend it to meet the body of the car?

figure it out come back and we can offer a rather simple solution

[QUOTE]hey kemp i had the same problem with my invader when i bought it from car boys.but what one body shop did was move the bottom lip arond it wasnt nsync with the top but hardly noticeable. i would not mind taking it off your hands if you do not find a solution e-mail me at Romanok24@yahoo .com and use caps lock in order to type in my e-mail address if you dont find a solution call me on my cell at 281-770-7229 and lets do buisness my birthday is coming up so what better way to get a prsent for myself.[quote=dustinkemp,Oct 12, 2005 - 2:20 PM]
