Economy Folded Shipping VS Premium Unfolded Shipping

Free FOLDED Economy Shipping: How this has worked for over 10 years!

 

You might be skeptical about folding a painted plastic bumper – it certainly sounds like it would damage the finish. But believe it or not, this is a tried-and-true method we've used for about ten years now without issue. In fact, our economy-shipped, folded bumper is a very popular and cost-effective choice. It's actually a common practice among online vendors because ABS plastic is quite pliable. And no, the paint doesn't get ruined! We incorporate a flex additive specifically to prevent that. We carefully fold the ends inward, secure them with shrink wrap, and then fully wrap the bumper for its journey to you. This temporary folding allows for more economical shipping without causing any breaks or lasting damage to the part.

So, how does it go back to its original form? It's surprisingly easy! Simply allow the bumper to sit in a warm space, either indoors in a heated room or outdoors in the sunshine, for approximately 3 to 5 hours. You'll see it naturally revert to its intended shape, ready for mounting. It's almost unbelievable, we know! And remember, your satisfaction is our priority. If you encounter any problems after unfolding, our excellent customer service team is here to help. If you'd rather skip this step altogether, we do have a premium, unfolded option available for purchase further down the page.

Premium UNFOLDED Freight Shipping

Choosing between our bumper options means selecting the right fit for your needs, but rest assured, both begin with the same foundation of quality. Each bumper is constructed from identical, durable materials and receives the exact same professional paint treatment: a 3-coat base followed by a 2-coat clear coat. However, the premium option delivers extra value and peace of mind. This consistent process guarantees a high-quality finish across the board.

The key differences, and where the premium option truly stands out, lie in its additional benefits. For starters, the premium bumper ships unfolded, offering immediate readiness for installation, unlike its folded counterpart. But the most significant advantage is the ten-year limited lifetime warranty on the paint job that accompanies the premium option. This is a substantial leap in coverage compared to the six-month warranty provided with the economy version, offering you greatly enhanced long-term protection and confidence in your purchase. Please be aware that due to its size, the premium bumper will be shipped via freight, and an additional delivery fee will apply, which is determined by your specific zip code.
