Should I demand a refund?

I own a 2006 Honda Civic I ordered a new painted bumper on eBay to replace my damaged one. After taking my old one off and measuring the new is 8 inches wider but look correct. I have tired 2 times to install and it won't fit. Contacted the seller and said it is the correct bumper and is flexable enough to be installed. It is stamped as a 05 civic however it looks like the 06 bumper he now wants me to paid to have it shipped back if I'm unable to install.

You can dispute it thru Ebay or Pay Pal.

This is the issue buying parts on Ebay. You need to check compatability via vin numbers.
He may be right in it came off an 05 car and you may have am 05 car.
That does not mean it will fit.
If the part is as described it is normal for you to pay return shipping.

That is one of the problems buying parts sight unseen over the net. Call a Honda Dealer parts department and ask if the 05 and 06 bumper covers are interchangeable. If they are, go to a local body shop and pay to have them install it. If not, pay to ship it back for your refund and buy one locally.

  • How much should I pay to replace the AC compressor on a 2010 Honda Odyssey? The air conditioning on my wife's minivan recently went out. I had her take it to a mechanic expecting a refill situations costing less than $100. When they got back to us they said the clutch would not engage on the AC and it required replacement costing over 1100 dollars. I've seen the part online for $250 to 450. How much is reasonable to pay for this repair? Would I be better off buying the part online and having someone else install it? I'm told the job is about 3 hours.
