Majority of the cost is the man-hours for prep. I'd say both bumpers $500 is a fair price not a bargain but fair.

haha i can get both of my bumpers done for $300 by my friend.

I didnt say id "kill" you i just said why copy me? haha There are many different color schemes you can do with red. You were planning on doing white or silver any ways. If you do white then you can buy chrome rims also to help with the white theme! or you can just go ahead and buy some sick looking white rims! laugh

that is a lot of money.


hey andrew, i know you do body work, so what is involved with prep? if i were to sand my car down for paint, how would it be done? I imagine I can find someone local to spray it for cheap, i just need to get it sanded down
