    50 days!!! now my babies back

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    had a minor accident with my USP bumper and picked up my car today. The body shop said they knew what bumper it was and assured me they knew what they were doing since they were working with the dealership to get the right bumper on....

    well I get there and I notice that they had put on the Votex bumper...it was a surprise but one I seem to like.

    That looks pretty good - I would like to see other pictures...interesting screw up on the body shops part though. Are they willing to correct the mistake?

    Re: 50 days!!! now my babies back

    Doesn't the Votex kit fit over top of the existing stock bumper? If so, they replaced your USP bumper with a stock bumper and fitted the Votex kit over it? Doesn't seem right to me. Ah well, unintended mod for you!

    (I could be completely wrong about this, I don't have any experience with the Votex kit. Just trying to understand what took place here)

    Re: 50 days!!! now my babies back

    I'm not certain either, but i believe its just a front spoiler - since the factory bumper is two pieces, they bought a new top and changed the lower.

    Glad you got it back. My wife knows I am crabby whenever my car is in the shop for repairs. I don't like not having my own ride.
