I dropped off my car to get the front bumper repainted and to put the carbon fiber lip on. Once I get it back I will post some pics.

My front bumper is cracked so it is being repaired rather than replaced with new lower grill inserts. $1700 plus the carbon lip. It is being done by my wife’s uncle and he only uses OEM and his work is unbelievable. He is also going to paint my chrome round fog lights as well.

If you are just repainting I would say 500-1,000.

The 1700 gave me a heart attack until you explained it lol.

So, for a regular shop, do you bring your own (like a gallon of oem paint for like $50) or do they do their own paint and color match?

You don’t need to bring the paint or shouldn’t and they should buy oem paint code to match your car.

What's the score with the paint below the headlight ?

Around here your car would appear to be a mobile pharmacy .
