Lightbulb Remanufactured OEM Bumper Website. Any reviews?

Sup guys. I'm just wondering if you guys have any experience or reviews with this website.

http://bumperwholesale.com/category....category=13801

I was searching for a new 98 front and rear bumper and found this site. They want $670 for both bumpers shipped. I clicked on the 1998 Lexus SC400 Remanufactured OEM Rear Bumper link and 1998 Lexus SC400 Remanufactured OEM Front Bumper link. Do any of you guys think this site is legit? I am going to call them in a few hours to make sure they have these bumpers in stock. If you can give me any advice whether I should buy from this site or from a member of cl it will be highly appreciated.
-Thanks

You can get Toyota OEM front and rear bumpers for $710 + shipping, which to me it would be worth it to pay the difference for something I know is 100%

But let us know what you find out...

Those bumpers might be flimsy compared to OEM.

I had my car in the shop, w/left rear damage. they replaced the rear bumper cover w/a reman that i saw new. It looked perfect. The day i was to get my car back, they called me to say it wouldnt be ready,cause the top of the rear bumper was wavy and i wouldnt like it. He said we should have just ordered a OEM one, for like $100 more. Could be like that dude.

Too bad this site doesn't even keep their inventory updated
I called them up today to ask about it and there is a waiting list for a refurbished one and they don't even sell the certified aftermarket or aftermarket bumper.
