New front bumper, This a good brand? I need a new bumper cover for my Camaro. I cant find a used one and when I do they want too much.
Certifit has a ls1 front cover for 60 bucks
I saw this on ebay
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BUMPE...Q5fAccessories
I like the ebay one because it doesnt have the "camaro" in the middle of the bumper.
Anyone have experience with either or can recommend someone else?

I think the ebay ones are kind of hit or miss. They will never fit perfectly, but with some work they can be ok. I've put on and painted 2, they came out so-so. Definitely a money saver vs. buying a new oem one though.

honestly you get what you pay for, aftermarket wont fit very well but you can make them fit decently, it will be made of a cheaper material also. Nother fits better than a OEM. If you can sacrefice the bumper cover not fitting as well then you can save a lot of money.

thats the same brand i got when i lost control in the rain and hit a fence. ill try to get you a pic asap. quality is good uncle painted it for me while it was off the car so its a shade darker red than my z. but fitment was pretty good , perfect with a little adjusting, they are no fun to get on and off though im used to the new cars that are 4 screws and a bunch of clips and they pop right off in minutes ,not these( all camaros not just this bumper cover)lol.

I am a body man and certifit products are pretty decent.. if they have it in stock for 60 bucks id grab it.. just make sure who ever paints it preps it right.. or the paint will flake off.. cause some bumpers come with out a primer and if u scuff it with out using a bleach the mold release agent will not allow paint to stick..
