Not selling them for a better deal? Aren't brand new brackets, JDM brackets around this price? Just wondering, I mean I understand you're looking for a profit.. I would be interested if the price were able to be justified. Let me know. Anyway, nice product and good luck.

I didn't know how much new ones cost.. I just put a guess one how much to sell...I can negotiate a price though. Is 150 reasonable?

Well I don't want to offer something un-reasonable, but seeing as how they are made different, even though the fitment looks good ,I'd offer $75 picked up, $90 shipped. realistically.Just let me know, I'm sure anything is profit for you...

how about 125 or 135 shipped?...its actually not much profit..after buying the gas for my cutting torch, paint, metal, then getting the bends on the metal, then a bunch of time making sure they fit properly, griding, and cutting, more grinding and more cutting, cleaning the edges, and finally priming and painting them, it was a little bit of trouble to make these. It definitely doesn't take 10 minutes to make them. It took a bit of time to source everything and develop something that will be sturdy and still be safe. At that price i'm probably making like 30 bucks a pair or so? But that isn't too bad considering it takes me about 2-3 hours to make each pair. The reason i'm making them is so other club4ag members can have a safe way of mounting their zenki bumpers on their cars instead of using shady zip ties and a bunch of other hack stuff i've seen. Plus they are a challenge to find. I had a lot of trouble finding them so I just decided to make them instead.Plus if you're local I'd remove your old bumper and install the new one for you free. I am making a step by step guide to installing these bumpers too to make it easy for people who don't know how to do it already. I don't think 125 is too unreasonable. The little profit that I make will to go my next project...which is to design a cheap way to make the trueno emblems. Price will probably range from 30-50 depending on where I can get material and parts cut. We'll see though. I need a kouki and zenki emblem to start making CAD drawings for them. Probably going to make them out of ABS plastic.(more durable)... I would trade any one a pair of brackets for kouki and zenki emblems.

Oh haha. I was fortunate to find one locally. Looks like I have no choice, but to buy a new bracket then.

I made mine off of a zenki bumper. If you have the bumpers id have to borrow them from you to make a pair of brackets and make sure they fit good. That's how I made mine. Let me know if you want to drop by. I don't know how far you are though. Just shoot me an email...ariefrancis at gmail dot com. Ill see what I can do. 250 for both is a fair price for both front and rear. Lmk.
