Default somebody hurt my baby.....

I think someone hit my car when i was in the city the other day. The rear bumper near the bottom has two decent sized punctures in it and a paint smear. Its not too noticeable, but its eating me up inside guys, oh the pain, oh the freakin pain! Does anyone know how much a new bumper will run me?

Default Which City?

I'm getting my rear bumper repainted. It has two good sized gouge/scratches and a couple of smaller ones. $700 for everything through insurance, $500 if it's a cash deal. I'm not sure if you need a new bumper or not but good luck on it........

Default Oh, by the way...

The only proper way to repaint a bumper is to remove it from the car. After it's repainted and allowed to cure, a new clearcoat needs to be applied. This is a 3 day process. Then the bumper is reinstalled. If Bone's estimate is for all of the above then he's getting a great deal....
