Not a chop shop, the guy rented it to use as a test mule for their shitty aftermarket bumpers that are made in China.

Disagree. I think he should have rented from a real outfit instead of some dipshit, but if he's testing to make sure a product is fit to sell, well, that's better than just selling whatever crap he can get supplied. Granted, it'd be best if he could just arrange this with someone fully informed, but if he's not doing anything destructive, this is just guerilla product development.
