I'm thinking about purchasing the real Techart type 2 front bumper and replicating it. the Original price is just ridiculous and if there is a large enough demand. i may just make a cheaper knockoff. the real bumper is fiberglass and the copy will be the same. let me know if you're interested

hmmm

"a cheaper knockoff. "

No thanks. I'll pass.... now If I were driving a Civic or Chevy Cavalier, an immitation part may not be too bad. Even then, I still would rather buy the real thing.

I hope you don't like your women the same way...." a cheaper knock-off".

by "cheaper" i meant Price...the Price on the original Piece is a ripoff @ $4,400 for a fiberglass bumper.

However, if you don't mind paying that much then go ahead and pay for it.

I'm not one to be paying too much for something that doesn't reflect it's price in the quality.

I know - here is an idea!!!
Conceptualize, design, develop, manufacture and market your very OWN front bumper. Then you may have another point of view on what is a fair price or not.
Not that I guess it matters, I am not too impressed with the idea of ripping off someone elses work.
If you want to make one for yourself, that is great for you, but to attempt to market a copy is innappropriate.
