I found a Vader front bumper on Craigslist (wooooo) for only $100, problem is it's Silverstone. I have Interlagos Fire, how much do you think it would run to have the Vader sanded/painted to "match" my paint?

verdict.

Depends on the quality of the shop...

Anywhere from $300-700.

Oof, that's hefty. Is the Vader a worthwhile upgrade? I just don't like how abrupt the stock bumper looks from the front, it's the one thing I'm not overly in love with on my baby haha

maybe look into a front lip then? Plus it'll be cheaper to paint too.

Mine cost $275 but it wasn't painted beforehand so it didn't need much prep work. It doesn't sound like you are in love with the style of the bumper but you're trying to make it work because you got it for a good deal...if so, sell it to a Silverstone owner and make their day. Then buy something you want!

Perhaps do the majority of the prep work yourself to save much of the cost - at least stripping the original paint and getting the surface fairly smooth. I'd let the shop do any final prep, including the primer, though, so they can't blame a poor result on your work.

I bought a new one and had it shipped to the shop. They charged me $300 and delivered it.
