I seen these sell out pretty sharpish on their website, I was wondering if they any good?
I been reading that maby they might be poor quality, I currently trying to sorce some originals but a nice new straight set from JK keeps a calling!

They won't fit and the chrome will flake within 3 months. Probably.

Re: JK Chrome Bumpers
Most things from JK are shizer. They were advertising new engines so my mate rang up to ask about them, the info they gave was totally wrong and if some unlucky punter followed the advice they gave they would have been over a grand out of pocket. I would never buy anything from them, even the pan sets they used to sell were not spot wielded together but glued and the handles fell off dangerous when full of boiling hot food etc. They often send the wrong engine bits if you ordered from them too, and when you get them they are usually rubbish.

Re: JK Chrome Bumpers
Are they loved by the Split and Bay community? Someone must be buying.
Not that I want to turn this thread into a JK bashing fest, just want to know why they are held in such low esteem for T25 peeps.

Its tough finding an original rear chrome bumper in half decent nic.
I found a couple bent up n ruseted a bit but might be tough getting them sorted.
