As a lot of us have suffered, mine is beyond service at this point, lower center section is held up with duct tape and tie wraps! It's so embarassing I won't drive the car.

I received three estimates yesterday for repair. $1550->$1600 for new cover, and labor (paint, R&R, etc.). And one for $850 to attempt a repair of the current one (urethane bonding agents and added support components).

I'd like to stick with the stock bumper and get one painted as opposed to shelling the insane price of the new cover (1 located in area, so I won't have to wait for the part), but a used, servicable (repairable/paintable) I'll consider.

This is out of pocket. Claiming on insurance will end up costing me 3x or more by the time they are done raising my rates (right now I'm at the most preferred customer tier but this *might* drop me out of that according to them and they won't say for sure either way.. *******s).

I know many have gone before me here, and many others will follow. I'm just hoping to get lucky and be posting at the right place, at the right time, to get one.

THX!!
