Very good deal IMHO! Mine is not paper thin in the front either! It is thinner then the bumper on my car now but I don't think it will be a problem! When I find my caliper I will take exact measurement of it.

Well, the box came from Extreme Dimensions. Your bumper looks the same as mine, except for mine needing extra fiberglass in the front. Does it have any markings on the bumper itself? Mine had the chinese writing right in the middle of the bumper on the inside.

No Chinese on mine!

Look at the link to extreme dimensions I posted. In the photos showing the product look at picture's 6 and 7. Pretty sure it is made by Extreme. They show it with a lip but mine did not come with one! I am going to bolt mine on before paint and see if it fits properly!

Look at the Extreme pics. It shows their bumper has the tow hook cut out on it. Does yours? Neither mine nor TraderJoe's pics have that.

Yes, these are just fiberglass and not duraflex. Wouldn't try bending these like the video, once on though it's solid enough. I'll post some fitment pics tomorrow.

Good point! It looks like the 5th pic doesn't have the Tow hook but all the others do? I have no clue on this one! But realistically speaking why would it com in the Extreme box? You think someone made a knock off of a knock off? I just hope mine fits nicely!

Also just noticed that there's don't have the grill molded into them. They do offer the GT-2 Style air ducts though to channel air to the radiators for $299.00!

My shipping was delayed a few days because they didn't have any more bumper boxes on hand. (Meaning that my bumper was sitting in the shop without a box.) So, if a customer of that shop had ordered a bumper for their car, and it came from Extreme, they'd have an empty Extreme box to ship a bumper out.

Just a guess.

Is it possible that these bumpers aren't all the same? If they've been just lying around the shop without packaging and boxes, I'd think it's possible that they just lost track of who made the bumpers and where they came from. Think about all the misc. parts you might have in your garage .

I don't think anyone has received a duraflex bumper, it's just fiberglass. TraderJoe's and machinegunt's look just like mine, except that mine has a manufacturing defect in the middle where they didn't use enough fiberglass.

I've been delayed in mounting my bumper, but hopefully I'll be able to get to it next weekend for a test fitment, then get it fiberglassed more for strength, then test fit again, then paint.
