Check out the 'quality' weld job on this POS.

I don't care if the seller is on this forum, because, they NEED to be exposed for the rip off merchant they are! Scroll down to the 3rd picture.....you'll see.

I bought a genuine hand built SpeedChaser bumper and it is the best!

Hmm! looks like he disclosed the hole in his add. The welds may be factory or done by someone else. I would think if they rewelded it then they would have also welded up the hole. Just sayin.

Yeah, I suppose, but, for that price?

That's crazy.,,,I'm pretty sure I didn't pay anywhere near that price for Speeds high quality bumper.

The price reflects the just "because its the original Honda part" scenario. Personally I prefer the better aftermarket offerings. Well in most cases that is!

Yeah that's no Speedchaser bumper for sure.

Wonder why he didnt repair the hole, weld it up and grind smooth before powder coating don't make sense.

I know it's because he powder coated it and found out just before or after they took it to them

When welding tubing to be powder coated it need a drain hole (vent) if your welds are not good they will leak and spray the cleaning solution when heated all the other parts not good
power coater will be pissed . so that i think is why they took a plasma torch to it so that will not happen
