Cost of a bumper respray? My front bumper has the spiderweb cracks all over the paint from someone backing into it, also has chipping right down the center of it. I found a place real close to me that will sell a new bumper painted with the paint code for $206, does that sound pretty good or would it be cheaper to have somewhere else just respray my bumper thats on the car?

Sounds like a good deal to me. Is it an OEM bumper or some repro? I would also ask them what kind of paint it was sprayed with and if a flex additive was added to the paint.

hmmm...sounds too good to be true. i bet it's an aftermarket Taiwan cover and some no name paint. find out all the details though. To remove your cover, repair & refinish it and re-install it is going to run you closer to $300 for a high quality job from a high quality shop.

Sounds good to me... I have a really bad crack and few other scratches from two different accidents. Im getting it completely repaired with the CETA mod for about $560
