Wow! $1000 to replace that bumper, prime and paint?!?!?! That is definitely a rip off. I live in Mass and my body shop mechanic primed and repainted my front bumper, rear bumper, and replaced and painted my mud guards for $700 and the paint is flawless. Word of advice, do more research and get estimates from at least five body shops. It sounds to me that this body shop is trying to rip you off man!!

So surf through the market place on here. There are alot of good deals on replica body kits for under $1000.

Don't most of the body kits have just the additions for the rear bumper? Which ones would provide a full replacement rear bumper?
