Brother backed into my car... ...and now the front bumper cover needs to be replaced. He decided to not look behind him before he backed out of the driveway and smashed into my car. Catered in the passenger side headlight bucket and scuffed the rest of the bumper pretty bad.
He is going to pay for a new cover and paint, but I'm considering just getting my car completely repainted because my rear bumper needs it as well as my trunk lid.
Has anyone heard of anything about S&T here in Katy? I've heard some good things about them, but anyone have first hand experience? Any ideas on the cost of a full repaint, same color?

I also need to get a new nose for my 97. Where is a good place to get a quality replacement part? I have seen cheap ones on ebay, but that seems like b.s.

the cheap ones your finding on ebay are nothing more than some idiot shopping at certifit and marking it up. the bumpers there are like 25$ but have the hardness and consistency of a trash can. i prefer gm factory parts. cant beat the fitment or quality of oem stuff. yea they are a lil more pricey like 180$ but well worth it.
