WTF, Walt and I have gotten 2 quotes already, ranging from $622 - $1100!
Shouldn't we be around $300 for just painting a bumper? What are you guys paying?

See thats what I thought it should cost. I don't know what these guys up here in the North Bay are smokin...
I still have a few more shops to check out around here. It really shouldn't cost THAT much, since I'm not even having them mount or dismount the bumper... just prep and paint! Im gonna take it home just like that, and let it cure OFF the car, so I can apply the clear bra with NO rock chips.

I think it should cost $50.00, but then I'm one of the 2 guys paying for this. Dan why don't you get yours black.......I'm sure we can save some monny if they are both the same color black.

Yeah... I have seen their paintwork, and it looks really nice.
If I really can't find anything under $600 up here, I might just drive it down to the city to save the money.

I think I'll be fine. I'm going to let it cure in direct sunlight (while we still have it this season) for a while ... at least a month.
Thanks for the heads up... im just not going to wait that long, since it does me no good to put a clear bra on an already chipped bumper. Defeats the purpose for me.
