Sorry to bump this back up to the top'ish, but I'm reading and wanted to clarify a few things.

It's a piece of cake really. It's so simple that anyone can do it.

It requires 1 8mm socket with wrench, 2 working fingers to unclip parts, a torx screw driver, and a little pulling. It shouldn't take you more than 10 minutes to remove the whole thing.

Transferring all the parts from one to the other will take you 20-30 minutes.
Re-install is an equal 10-20 minutes.

You get results like this with little effort:

It's funny how younger russian guys these days hold grudges for the littlest things. Chill out dude. Enough is enough. We ship greyhound, they offer a good service that is significantly cheaper than the others.

We now offer the same shipping service as Trinity and all the others, and Pilot Delivery is crap just as much as anyone else's.

But if you want door to door for larger bumpers, you have 2 choices, pay a LOT less for Greyhound or pay more for equally crappy but a different crappy Pilot delivery.

Pilot door to door is $90-120, but they have to call, arrange delivery, they almost never show when they say they will (our experience in 30+ bumpers we've shipped with them).

Greyhound has it's own issues like a total lack of tracking, but the bumpers have never been lost and only had 2 out of now over 6000+ greyhound shipments in the last 2 years.

This a good idea, however, most shops will charge less to just paint and IMO having them install it for $100 more isn't necessary given how easy the parts are to install.

That said, Umnitza offers the best deal on these reps. Their shipping method sucks, but it does save you a significant amount of money. Just know that most times in life you get what you pay for. Weigh your options and decide for yourself. After all, it is YOUR money. Good luck.
Good luck!
agreed.
Also, we offer door to door, you just have to call us for it.
