Default Crap...wife ran into a Saturn, and cracked the front bumper.

It's cracked near the right headlight washer. Funny thing is, not a scratch on the saturn. The light is off just a touch. Just called the dealer - bumper is about $470 after discount. What's a fair price to paint it? I can do do the install myself.

Just glad nobody got hurt.

Cheerio.

Default The shop will incorporate the price of install into the total.

Pay no more then $400 for paint and labor. They need to pait the bumper while its OFF the car, so do them a favor and dont install it till its painted and see if the price makes any difference if you pop it into place. You could always take the old bumper off yourself and save them he time, I guess.
