Hey everyone,
Just as I was pulling into my driveway today ... going a bit fast ... I was nearly rearended by something (all happened too fast). Anyways ... I panicked and pulled off the brakes, but still tried to make the turn to my driveway. Needless to say ... I slid into a small tree and cracked the front (stock) bumper. There was no damage to the wheels, headlights, fenders or hood (thank God).
I need to know what options are out there ... and how much they cost.
I found the Fiberglass replica kit from Performance for $245 + shipping. Any ideas on how much shipping will be?
How much am I looking at for paint (Chrome Silver)?
What other options are out there around the under $400 for the front bumper?
Any advice is appreciated guys .... I am fine ... but feeling like crap about the car ... but it is just a car ... I am confident we will get it looking good soon enough.

A OEM bumper will run you about $250 not including shipping. A after market one will probably run you about $500 and up..keep in mind you still have to account for body work and prep.
a good paint job will cost 3-400$.
try to find someone selling a stock bumper that has your color car. otherwise find a shop to maybe bondo it up and touchup the paint. if its not perfect, you can try to save for an aftermarket or stock from then.
