Default Need ebay bumper advice

I know ebay is hit or miss with parts. I wanted to know if anyone has used any particular seller who sold them a front bumper that has exceptionally good fitment. The first one I saw on ebay even looked twisted and messed up in the picture, so I'd rather take a small gamble rather than just hoping I picked the right seller. thanks

not sure what the sellers name is, but theres one that has a lot of camaro body parts, fenders, bumpers, hoods, spoilers, etc. and the prices are pretty good, and the sller seemed like they had pretty good stuff. i think all of their picture backgrounds were completely yellow.

When I ordered a front bumper for my Camaro about 2 years ago it was the worst investment I made. Great price and shitty quality. Bumper had no flex like stock bumpers and they had trouble painting it. I had it on for about 2 weeks before I decided to take it off and fix the crack in my stock bumper. I found it easier to go to a local junk yard close to you saves on shipping and you can get yourself a nice OEM bumper for cheap if you look hard enough.

^i agree. i'd take a good condition junk/salvage yard part first anyday. 1) its OEM 2) you get to see it in person before buying, 3) probably the best price you're gonna get for the replacements you need.
