IIRC, they are all molded. You could remove one with a saw though.

why did you clamp them on instead of screwing them on? This would make me conclude that all the mounting holes don't exist and maybe you need to drill through the bumper to the factory mounts.

Sorry but I would NOT buy from this company. Just a warning.

I ordered a C-west replica bumper and the fitment was just HORRIBLE. The shop i took it to took pictures showing that it wasnt even close mostly because I didn't believe them at first and that maybe they'd left the crashbeam on but they had not.

After contacting ED, it took FOREVER to get replies and they refused to accept that it did not fit. They demanded I take it to another shop and take more pictures which is ridiculous and said even then Id have to pay to ship it back to them to get a replacement....I cut my losses even though it was a pretty big loss and now it just sits in my garage....very stressful and waste of money and time

PM on the way.

The only parts we make that come with mounting holes pre-drilled are hoods and trunks. Everything else does not. This is due to the fact that each part will fit differently on each vehicle. As long as you test fit the part and mark the holes properly, there should not be an issue.

It was not. You would need to either shave the USDM down or replace it with the JDM crash beam. The same has to be done for the OEM JDM part.

My apologies for the experience you had. How long ago was this? It's tough to believe that it took so long that you just held on to the parts. PM me your info and I can look up your account.

C-Speed looked pretty nice. I've heard both good and bad things about Extreme Dimensions so I guess it's just a shot in the dark for good fitment

I have have yet to understand why people complain about body parts so much.

1) Its aftermarket - Its not going to fit perfect because your car is not perfect.
Look at all the fitment issues with a aftermarket undertray or downpipe.

2) You have to prep any body part to make it fit perfectly to your vehicle. That is where you make the part fit your vehicle.

3) If you dont want to prep it, go with a OEM part and pay OEM price.

ED is showing you the fitment is 8/10. Its up to the customer to make it 10/10 if they choose. Just like the undertray and downpipe, takes a little bit of time but well worth the effort in the end.

Show us painted and installed pics in order to be taken serious. All your products from what I can see look like they will fit like garbage. This isn't me being a diick btw just giving you some constructive criticism.

We rely heavily on the end user to provide finished pictures. We can test fit the product just fine but we don't have the facilites or the manpower to paint. This is why we have our Cash for Pictures program as an incentive for the customer to provide those pictures.

As far as fitment, I have already commented about the support we provide for any major issues with the product. We work with every customer that has a fitment issue. If we believe the part is workable with some work at the body shop, we typiclly offer some sort of credit. If it is a major issue and we determine the part defective, we send out a replacement, simple as that.
