I'm really interested in the bumpershellz for my 2017 F150. I'm in New England and my front and rear bumper are starting to get a fair bit of rock chips that have begun to rust. I got quoted nearly $800 for clear vinyl wrapping, so the bumpershellz are about half the cost. My question is, should I have the rust spots repaired and painted before I apply the bumpershellz? Or would that be an unnecessary step? Thanks

 

My chrome bumpers were in perfect shape before I applied mine. Their instructions only say to be worried about dents and distortion.

I can say this, once they are on they are very secure. If you ever take them off, if you have any lose paint, it will come with them and make whatever damage you have worse.

 

Here's pictures of my truck for anybody interested in the bed-lined shellz. I had the honeycomb of my grille and the tailgate letters sprayed with Line-x and they match perfectly.

 

Literally just ordered the center front bumper shell piece in and texture a few hours ago. I have a white sport with the raptor grill so going for the nice extended black grill look.

 

Are those the "Tough Shellz"?

 

What color/texture spec is this?

They only offer me 5 colors and it's paintable, tough Shellz, gloss white, matte black and gloss black

 

Armorshellz.

Toughshellz is what you'll want to select. Cheapest place I was able to get it at the time I ordered was through CarID on ebay.

 

I have an Agate black rcsb and got a quote of $250 Canadian for vinyl wrapping my bumpers.

Compared to $660 Canadian from www.bumpercovers.ca for front middle, front sides, and rear bumpershellz all in back gloss

Seems like a no brainer to me as I can just spend another $250 in a few years when the vinyl gets all chipped

I'd be at $500 Canadian after 10yrs compared to $660 for not knowing how long.

Just weighing my options

 

Your quote for the Bumpershellz are way high. Off the Ecoological site both front and rear Gloss Black with shipping is $450. I got mine 20% off during last years Black Friday sale.
