Front bumper messed up, Need advice!

cloverz7 · Oct 3, 2013

Hello all,

I've occasionally checked the forums every once in a while never posted much. Long story short Uhaul claimed my car was compatible with their auto-transport and it went on fine, but whenever I went to back off, the bumper caught the transport and broke a bunch of snaps on the front bumper as well as dented it a good bit.

I'm wondering if I should try to get an aftermarket front end, or just replace the stock one? The quote I got was around $900 to fix it...I've been trying to see/find if there were any decent kits out there, but all I see is for the earlier gen.

Price in consideration, what would you all do?

The bumper itself is about $350 or so, then some paint I would say $550 installed at a body shop.

Aftermarket ones start at $600 and up not painted.

Jeeze you think that the body shop I went to was just ridiculously marked up? They quoted me at $838

Try another shop.

I was wrong retail is $331

Man that bumper is sweet...Question is...will it support fog lights? it doesn't look like it...

GrayGen2010 · Oct 3, 2013

I would buy it if I had a 2013! It doesn't, but in the thread they mentioned you could probably get a body shop to custom mount them on there. I think it looks good without the fogs personally and the bumper will be made of fiberglass so it'll be harder to mount fogs to it. Just a thought though.

cloverz7 · Oct 3, 2013

Yeah I'll definitely hold out til I can see some more pictures, and see a definitive price...

GrayGen2010 · Oct 3, 2013

The only pics i've seen so far of the install are on the ARK Genesis and the SG Factory pics on the thread. Pricing I think wasn't stated, but I would assume somewhere around $600. Maybe when they have a group buy you can get it for cheaper.

There's a new Vega bumper that is just being finished up now for the 2013+. It's very similar to the 2010-2012 Vega, except no side vents. Very sleek look!

cloverz7 · Oct 4, 2013

Are there any pictures yet?

GrayGen2010 · Oct 4, 2013

I think Mike is talking about this:

I was just quoted 640 dollars to remove/repair/repaint my rear bumper.(Canadian dollars. Ontario tax included)

Barely any damage, minor scuffing. But they have to replace the styrofoam absorber as well...no big deal as it was only 75 bucks.

Was rear ended in traffic last week

just rescrew it on or zipties they cost too much to replace atm.

Hello,

I'm looking to get a new front bumper and a passenger side fender for my 2013 Genesis Coupe in black. How was the quality of their paint job? Was the bumper same as factory?

focalgencoupe · Oct 27, 2013

Does say "Remanufactured"

SimplyKevin · Oct 31, 2013

Went to their shop and asked, he says remanufacture just means they repaint to the color you need
