repainting front bumper- any rough estimates?

[mopar dude]

I have been thinkin about getting my front bumper repainted since bugs, rocks etc have done a number on it. Bug marks make up 99% of the defects on my bumper. I can't stand it much longer and I wanna get it repainted. Anyone got a rough estimate as to how much a body shop would charge to repaint or reclear my front bumper? I have a flame red car if it matters. Thanks

Let me know how much you get it done for. I might consider doing mine.

IN red, 400 bucks is a fair price. BSBOB

Hmm I'd like to know too.

This is basically equivalent: I got a rear rollpan for my PT and stopped by a few local body shops for estimates. They were all in the $300 to $400 range and I was going to change the color (got it used from another PT owner) but it was also off the car at the time. I ended up taking it to the uncle of a guy I worked with who did for $150 - color match is 100% dead on too. Lucky me.

i would be careful when getting just one peice painted, over time our cars are in the sun and the paint does fade, if you get just one peice painted, then the front bumper may not completely match the other peices that it is touching, ie hood and fenders.

A lot of shops will recommend a blending technique to make sure the paint all looks the same.
