I just got a Tungsten front bumper cover from them and it was pretty close to flawless. I did pick it up though (I only live about 1 1/2 hours from them), so it didn't get dragged around during shipping. The bumper had a few scuffs where the bumper meets the fenders. It looked like it happened while it was being removed and was easily fixed with some touchup after I installed it. Newtakeoff wraps the two outside edges with that white tape/wrap that new cars come with and the very center of the bumber was also covered and had a layer of bubble wrap around it. The paint was a perfect match and you can't beat $200 for a painted bumper cover. I have had nothing but positive experiences with everything I have purchased from them and would highly recommend them.

I bought my black rear spoiler from them. I felt the spoiler was protected with tape, and packed very well. All my spoiler needed was a cleaning and some wax.

Lot of people use them. I got my rear rotors from NTO, satisfied, but they usually get you on shipping. If I remember correctly if you call they'll give you a discount

Purchased some "base" GT wheels to use for my snow tires from them and I had great service, quick shipping, and got a RIDICULOUS price!

I just realized that Ft. Wayne is not too far from the Ohio border. I could actually drive there in just under four hours and pick one up if I chose to.

Not to thread-jack, but I've been thinking about this for awhile. I have two simple questions as well.
1.) Would it fit in the trunk with the rear seats folded down?
2.) What is a rough total cost for fender liners, the grille, wiring, switch, ect?

You'll be surprised at how big the bumper is once you try putting it in the car. It ain't gonna fit.

Never had any issues using them with painted or other delicate parts.

I had to pick my GT/CS rear up from a Greyhound depot and fit in the back with the seats down
