Where are you on this? Have a price yet? I am interested in getting my front one redone. It has some minor dings I would like cleaned up.

Where do I sign up?

Alright. We got another deal.

With a commitment of 10 bumpers.

$250 per bumper, triple plate (with copper)
$15 per hole to fill
Naturally plus shipping to your home. He said it averages about $60 from LA to Portland, so that should give you an idea to guage what it will cost to ship to you.

Also, sorry no black chrome option. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Ok, here is the list of those in. Let me know if I should take you off of it, or add you to it!

2 Narino
1 Warrenoliver
4 Wilhelm
2 914dave
2 freezing14
? Dr Evil's friend

we are at 11 + whatever Dr Evil's friend wants. Sweet! I can't wait for shiny new bumpers! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif)

Anyone else want in?!

OK here is the information. Send your bumpers to this address In Care of Victor. If you have holes to be filled, somehow mark them so they know which to fill and which to leave alone. Probably not a bad idea to call them as well and walk them through it. In your shipping invoice note that you are a with the "914 Club" deal. My name is Jorge Narino if they happen to ask who set it up.

Victor
The Bumper Shop

Ben - I'll talk to him about getting in later in the summer. I know he wants the 10 bumpers at the same time for the deal. I'm sure they will be ok with a couple not to much later.

Revised list:

2 Narino
1 Warrenoliver
4 Wilhelm

Oops forgot to add that. Enclose your contact information with your bumpers. Once the bumper is done Victor ill contact you and then do the credit card transaction over the phone.

TedK - Yes i believe that will be fine. I'll let him know to expect your 3 then.

Jorge,
This is a great deal! Thanks for the hard work. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) I'll get mine off this weekend and shipped. Mine will be arriving a little later than the rest too. Did they give you any idea of turn around time for these?

When I had mine done I was quoted 7 to 10 days. Got a call after 3 days saying they were done.

Your mileage may vary...

Jorge,
Can I walk my 2 bumpers into this shop this weekend and get in on this deal or do they have to have our names/order info beforehand?

Gladly guys! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

No need to be on the list. I was just tallying the number to make sure we get the 10 bumper minimum required.

I currently have a call into the shop. One of our guys called in and the shop manager said he didn't know about our group deal. Hopefully Victor will come into the shop today so we can get this striaghtened out.

I don't think there will be an issue. I'll post as soon as I get ahold of them.

Just talked to Victor. He assures me there will be no problem. The shop is family run from what I gather so I think everyone has same stake. He said he would talk to Nestor.

When you send your bumpers or take them in, include a note that says Attention Victor.

Attention: Victor
914 club deal
$250 per bumper (including copper in triple plate)

Your contact information.


Cant wait to see pictures of your cars with new shiny bumpers!
