Default Parting with the z and getting a G! NEED HELP

Okay i have a z now and im selling it and i was going to get another z, but then i come across this g35, is has 170k on the chassis and only 50k on the motor, the guy has all the paperwork done for the motor which was over 8k, ssr vienna wheels k sport coils 3 inch downpipes all the way to the back with no cats and leads out to a obx b10 exghaust, fly wheel, new clutch, plenum spacer, fitment is perfect, black with leather and sunroof stick shift, and only has one MINOR ding on the front left that you cant notice, However, the back bumper is missing and it has a grey trunk, how much would it cost to get a new bumper, painted and get the trunk painted, the guy told me $200 for the bumper, id get stock (dont know if hes lying or not) plus painted for $800 but i dont want crappy paint job i want as near to the car as possible, plus i would need the trunk painted and i would be good to go! it has a clean title and everything, and never any trouble with the new motor, he has a book of everything, hes only asking 7k, i will definately get the car but how much will paint + the new bumper be and has anyone ever painted something on their body with that many miles? NEED HELP SOON CAUSE HES HOLDING THE CAR THANKS

$1000 seems about right…I f'd my front bumper up back in 2006 and it was $1400…I would look for a good condition used bumper that is your color that doesnt need painted would work fine. I have no idea about the trunk…

lastly, have the car inspected by a 3rd party mechanic…you never know...

The fact the trunk needs paint, no rear bumper, and a new engine would raise some questions in my mind. Couple that with 170k miles and i prob would look elsewhere. But, if you cannot resist because the asking price is only $7k, then i would have the car thoroughly checked out by a trusted mechanic.
