Bumper Paint Cost
What's a fair price to get a front bumper re-painted? My car is black, which should be easy to match. The bumper definitely needs some tlc, has tons of rock chips in it. If anyone has some recommendations in the Cleveland area let me know.

My painter charged me $150 to have mine painte NBM(naby blue metalic), but other shops wanted to charge me 350, so do some checking around man. You might want to do your rocker pannes too if they arent too chipped out.

Hi There:
I,am wondering which is best. To paint with the bumper on or off the car. A complete paint or just a touch up?(I have scratches on the bottom & rock chips below the lower part of front licence plate area. Any pictures of a bumper removal & install re-alignment? Reason I,am asking one small shop says $300 with the bumper on 1 day in the shop. 2nd place( big shop) said the best way is to remove the bumper $500 3 days in the shop. I would like to remove the bumper myself & a helper to save some money+ I don,t like my vette setting any where for 3 days.
Thanks for any advice.

Last time I checked here, a price of $250 was given for repainting a front fascia. Prices may vary depending on the hourly labor rate in your area.
