My front MWC bumper support weighed 3.4 lbs.. the rear weighs less than that. I'd guess around 7lbs for the pair.

I will pick these up after a Kmember for mine, very nice piece.. IIRC they don't break the bank too bad either for the weighs savings.

Thanks for the install pics Joe!

150.00 each is normal price. We can do custom options if needed.

We offer front and rear for 93-02 Camaro, 98-02 Trans Am, Firebird Formula, and 93-97 Firebird Formula front.

Jsteele... your parts are at the powdercoater now and will ship soon.

We have been a bit overwhelmed by the response of these bumper supports and it has taken us a bit to get caught up here. We will build inventory for quick shipping as soon as the current orders are filled, which won't be long now.

That was probably the weight then. I did not weight them.

When Eric told me the price for 2 shipped to my door I had to take them right away

My pleasure Eric! I cant believe how well these lined up in the car without you guys having my car right in front of you. Very easy install and I didnt even have to take the bumper covers off. My bumpers dont sag anymore Great pieces of work! I will be ordering other parts from MWC again Thank you Eric!
