I have holes in my front bumper because the previous owner had a front license plate mount that I took off. There are also two chips in the paint near the holes. I want to get that fixed but will it cose more to get fixed than just buying a new body kit. I know this depends on the shop and the body kit. I plan on getting a body kit under $500 that is already primered and having someone else paint and install it. What would something like this run?

Some of my options are:

Thanks!

 

First kit is fugly

Second kit the whole world and aliens have.

Third kit is so-so but you need the diffuser.

There are other kits out there which look better.

 

The body kit will cost more.

 

Think about it.....

$500 body kit + fit/install labor + complete body kit paint

Fix 3 holes and 2 chips + touch up paint


What do you think would cost more??

 

Agreed haha I think I'll just get the bumper fixed

 

Home depot, 2 little plastic push in plugs and touch up paint. I had to do that to my Juke cause the dealer had the plate installed when i bought it.

 

Drive the car to a body shop and get an estimate. Then compare to the price of the kit you want and do that math.

 

It also would obviously be more since you would be painting more than a front bumper with a new kit.





I would have done this long before making a thread

 

How much is a OEM bumper from Nissan?
How much is a body kit? Compare the two. There you go.

 

Some people just can't think for themselves.
