Stillen bumper installed

[zenki07]

looks really nice!

[dangeris]

My bumper should be on my porch when I get home. Planning to bring it to my auto body guy tomorrow morning. Hopefully he'll have it painted and installed by this weekend. I'll post pics of it once I have it installed.

Mr_Coupe, Did your bumper in yet?

ok.. so i was wondering, when u buy the bumper are the black inserts pre painted or what, and if not what color do you go with cuz it doesnt look like it has much shine to it????

[generic808]

That's nice!

[adidas2go]

When you buy the bumper it isn't painted at all. Its all raw black urethane. I just painted the whole bumper but taped off the grill, lower opening, and little wings on the sides. So all those "un-shiny" areas is still raw black urethane.

Hey Kyle, on the website it says Coupe only for the fascia, any chance you guys are coming out with a compatible kit for the 08 Altima Sedan anytime soon? I'd be first in line to buy it :-)

Thanks!

[yea-its-an-altima]

THanks Man! thats wat i was wondering about..it looks great. im just tryin to decide how it would look on my white alti.

[kyle@stillen]

For the Altima sedan guys, we are looking at developing it for the sedan cars as well.

It is a two piece fascia so we would probably just need to change the top piece and leave the lower alone. Basically we just need to get a car in to our design shop for a few weeks.

You can have my car as a test object if I can keep the parts afterwards :-) I'll just ride my motorcycle in the meantime ;-)

[CoupeSlate]

so does this bumper not include a place for the fog lights?or are they hiding somewhere???

[johnny_d]

they did not design a place for the foggies, suggested that you mount them behind the grill or fab one up

are you sure its broken? urethane is practically indestructable. The fascia does come in 2 pieces. Post some pics

[dangeris]

Mine came in yesterday and it wasn't broken! I was expecting it to come in a big box but it just came in wrapped up in heavy duty plastic. I'm bringing it to the shop this morning so they can paint it. Hopefully before the week is up. YooHoo!!!! 1 more step closer!

[Mr_Coupe]

yea im sure its broken i brought it 2 macco and the guy said its broken and it wasnt even urethane he said urethane wouldnt break like that so i dunno whats going on

[Robs_altima]

If you have to send them pictures, please post them on here too. I think it would help those of waiting to buy the bumper. Just sounds too weird, something has to be up…..

[ducz24]

wow that looks really good!!!!

[Mr_Coupe]

Here are the pics of my broken facia

[Mr_Coupe]

there they go now what do u think of that

[kyle@stillen]

Wow that is really strange. UPS must have done a really god job of thrashing that. I'll make sure that we get a new one sent out ASAP and we'll have UPS cover this one.

I can assure you that this is urethane. I don't know what the maaco guy was talking about but we have been using poly-urethane for over 20 years. We were one of the first companies to start using it for automotive body kits.

Urethane is virtually indestructible...but that doesn't mean that you can't break it if you really want to. Adidas2go can attest to the strength and durability of urethane as I stood on a piece right in front of him and compressed it straight to the floor. As soon as I lifted my foot it bounced right back into shape. I weigh 200 pounds so that'll give you some idea of how strong it is.

Sorry about this, I will make sure it gets corrected immediately.

[Mr_Coupe]

thanks kyle i really appreciate it.. my names matthew by the way. alex and dean also assured that they will help me out will i haved 2 get this one shipped back or will u just send another? i took the pics and sent them 2 alex already i think the email was [email protected] and i argee i think UPS did a crapy handeling job

[kyle@stillen]

Yeah its a UPS insurance claim... no worries on getting a replacement.. it wont cost you or stillen a dollar.

[Mr. Music]

UPS does it again! Sorry to sound rude, but it doesn't surprise me that UPS destroyed it, as they can be really good at ruining anybodies day.

[dangeris]

Sheesh,....My bumper is still wrapped in that heavy duty plastic that it came in. I was going to drop off the bumper today after work but after reading this thread, I'd better unwrap it to make sure its all in one piece.

[Mr_Coupe]

thanks a lot kyle you guys at stillen really know how to handle buisness so when should i expect the new facia by? oh and dangeris check urs too you never know when UPS might strike again

[adidas2go]

wow dude that sucks so bad . I cant believe that broke like that. Kyle defiantly collapsed that bumper in front of me and it looked as if it were all but indestructible when it popped back into place. It will be even that much sweeter when it finally gets there
