How much to have a bumper painted?

Just lookin for a rough estimate of how much it would cost to get a bumper painted...
If someone is in the business and can look up the cost of paint it's Pontiac paint code 25U.

Just got mine back from the body shop last week after some chick backed into me. The toal came to 993 with the bumper and foam piece, which were around 500. So about 500 for paint and the lovely time of your friends at the body shop. Less if you take it off and bring it in already sanded and/or primed, which is always a smart decision.

Only problem with that is u would be able to tell its not factory. A plastic bumper is gonna look a lot different repainted then the rest of the car.

She's over it...it's prob just gonna stay like it is for a while. Eventually we'll have the whole thing repainted. What do they charge though? Where's it at?

I got mine done for $400. Knew the guy though.

Did the "evo" mod too for me and grilles. The grilles don't even look plastic anymore, I love it!

I actually just got mine back from the shop cause it was damaged. I had the front lip painted and installed and the entire bumper sanded down and repainted (huge dents and scratches) and matched the paint. They completed it all for just over 350.
