SO.....
Long story short Mike Warhurst (Warpig) had helped to broker a deal for stainless bumpers that looks like it's well....dead. I'm looking into making front and rear bumpers off shore with a company that a student of mine's uncle owns. They have experience in stamping and have pressed big enough to do these. QC is an issue that will need to be addressed, and at 1st it will be late bumpers. They are very labor intensive to do, but if there is an interest I will visit the factory and see what we can do. I plan to actually ship over front and rear clips to check fits. That and final payment will be made in person as they are packed to insure no surprises. I'm shooting for about $800-900 a set but would need to do about 50 sets to make it work. I will also be offering discounted rubber bumper tops for those that want it to help make this work. So, lets start again. Who would be interested at that level? |

The answer is "no" unless you ask... Group: Members Posts: 1,184 Joined: 21-November 15 From: White Plains New York Member No.: 19,387 Region Association: North East States |
I had expressed interest with the Mark Henry offer / possibility and haven't heard if he's still doing this or not... I am interested in bumpers and would like to deal with a reputable member of this community but am not interested in being inconsiderate by putting MH off because of his absence to the conversation.
Only reasons for this reply is to show my interest in bumpers and be fair and considerate to the other member that sparked my interest. |
