ebay front bumper cover

Just wondering if anyone has bought a front bumper cover for a Maxima off of ebay. Painted for less than 200 bucks is a steal, but I am wondering about fitment. And PLEASE do not respond with speculations. If you haven't bought one your comments are useless to me.

This is obviously not OEM, it has a different style for the lower "grill" for lack of a better description. At least I think it is different as mine is covered in mesh and forget what it really looks like.

The folks below sent me a great painted bumper. Not sure if they are winding down production as their store is stripped. Might shoot them an email of your looking for OEM type of quality.. I got the rear bumper painted and mailed for under $600

I ordered a paint front bumper from them, it didn't fully match perfectly so they gave me half back.

They ship it a little wierd, they fold the top half down and pack it really good, so when you get it, you need to put it in the sun to help stretch it out.
