Selling my C5 front bumper cover. A coworker backed up into me and scuffed it up on the passenger front side as shown. I have since removed the front badge, wet sanded, and polished the bumper to the best of my ability - it looks better than in the pictures. Will still need a repaint to be "perfect".



$300 shipped

Does not come with front badge, license plate cover, or any side markers/grilles/foglights/accessories. Front bumper cover only.

There are only scuffs, no cracks in it?
Where are you located?
I am at 32327 and would be VERY interested in this.

I am located in 14086. Im probably going to take a wash on shipping, since there's no easy way to package something like this short of just wrapping it in bubble wrap, or using a refrigerator box.

On a previous car I had a bumper I shipped at a Greyhound terminal costing lower than the usual UPS etc. Wrapped it several times in bubble wrap.

Now that I recall, I have shipped bumpers and wheels via Greyhound as well. Thanks for the reminder!

All you have to do is either use bubble wrap or an old blanket, there is a Greyhound bus terminal in Tallahassee about 35 miles away from me. They just put it underneath the bus in the luggage compartment.
There are no cracks in the bumper, just deep scuffs?

I sent you a PM with some more details. There are no cracks or splits in the plastic anywhere on the bumper. The damage is as shown in the picture, but not as bad since I have wetsanded/polished a lot of the smaller scrapes out.

There are also some scrape marks underneath the front corners from scraping into driveways from the previous owner. They are not visible when the bumper is mounted on the car, but since this will need paint anyways, it doesn't matter. Overall a structurally sound bumper.

Bump. Some interest but no offers yet.

Bump, cleaning out the garage.

Can you post the pictures after the wet-sanding and all?

Reminder that there are NO cracks or splits in the entire unit - just surface scrapes. All damage on this bumper can be sanded down, filled, primed, and painted to look new.

Front top view. Notice how only the 2 large scratches remain, Most of the scuffing that was there before, is gone.
