that was an option..
but i am in the same dilemma with my chrome bumpers
i can either buy new bumpers or have the ones i have painted..
so confused which way to go with this.

I was confused about what to do with my chrome bumpers too, until my wife got in the wreck. Now I'm getting black bumpers.

It all works out in the long run. And I hope she was ok...

I don't know why I am asking since I don't have any money but does anyone have a total price?

Jim was supposed to call me yesterday or today if he had five names to complete my order, but I guess he didn't get enough names yet. I don't know how much the shipping will be. I'll post it when I know something.

I got the front one and a Roush valance from the 1500 grilles thread. I'm getting a cover for the rear bumper. The thread is about Roush overstock items. I got my bumper (With rectangular foglight holes) and valance today, both shipped for $430. Considering the actual price of a just primed front bumper and an unpainted 04 Roush valance I saved a bundle.

The reason that there aren't 5 or more people is the lack of information.

Some shipping costs would ease things along a bit more.

i also think its that everyone thought they would get a surround painted to match all for that price as well.the start of the thread was misleading but im sure it wasnt his fault though.im waiting to make sure i have the funds.i also think that the grille is only 10 dollars cheaper so if shipping is 10 dollars higher then might as well go through saleen and not have to rush then at that point there is no savings.
