81020, How much to re-paint?
Posted by tomatot, Jan-30-05 11:30 AM
Do you know how much it usually cost to re-paint the front bumper and the fender area?

Just want to know the approximate amount of money I may need to spend.

Thanks!

depends really. where do you live, liek what state? are there 'good' shops around you, or just the 'decent' shops? good shops for a nearly perfect job will charge you about $500-750 probably. decent shops, $400 probably. dont go to the cheaper place, trust me, it doesnt pay off. i took my sisters gsx a year ago to get the fender and door painted after a hit and run, and the clear started pealing off with the paint after like 2 months because they didnt prep the car good enough before they painted it. go to a good, well known shop and pay the difference for good work.

$396.00 is what your bill would be at my shop considering there is no body work involved. it would be more if i had to make a repair first.

About $50 for me. :P I love being friends with the owner of a body shop.

I'm having a helluva time finding the reciept, but I know I kept it b/c its so important (for insurance reasons).

Haven't forgotten though!

back when i first got a new oem front bumper painted and installed on my car, it only cost me around 150-200 but i kind of got a deal on it.

150-200 is really a good deal!
I am looking for a price around 400-500.
Waiting for it to be warmer. Then, I will fix it.
Becoz I heard that the temperature change will make the paint crack.
Is it the real case?

You all suck so much.. I went to a few differnt shops and the best price I got was $700 to paint my side sqirts, and paint the turbo wing and all on my car. $1,000 if they do the body work including mounting wing shaving antennae and rear wiper. Yup.. It's gonna a while down the road before I do any of this body work.
