Previously I heard good things about Shine products' fitment, but sadly, the quality seems to have gone downhill tremendously. I got their Autoexec front bumper, but the quality, attention to detail, and fitment are pretty bad. There are couple corners which look like an end of broken pencil which can be fixed with bondo I guess. The screw hole near the headlight aren't even close to being lined up. They are about 1.5" off on both sides. I also had to shave down the driverside corner almost 1/2 inch to force it into the sidemarker groove after which the wrap holding onto their metal mount is significantly weakened. I am trashing this bumper.

it's well documented that Shine is hit or miss. Sorry to hear that it didn't work out for you!

He hasn't taken care of anything after I sent a couple pictures demonstrating such poor fitment. Once I showed him the alignment issue, there has since been no replies or answers. He has since ignored my 2 other e-mails, and I gave up.

This is an inherent risk of trying to get away with a replica bumper. I expected some fitment issue. I just didn't expect this much problem from a Shine Auto bumper. It is a gamble I was forced to take since MS isn't available, and I lost. It is what it is. I am not going to bitch much more about a replica bumper. This isn't a Honda forum lol.
