I got the bumper from RPI, the paint/install was covered by insurance (Since it was an accident)
The install was a PITA, no shops, in the area (bmore) have installed the rieger bumper so it took a while, but the shop finally figured it out. It came out really well though, better then even I or them expected.

Most of it was due to all the research and phone calls I made during the process
but they listened to my "proper" instructions of ripping out the collision bar from the original bumper and glueing it onto the rieger, as well as using screws in the ends to support the bumper into the fenders. All in all though, it came out awesome looking.
In terms of installations, the installer actually said now that he's actually done one and knows what the hell he needs to do to install it, he can do it much faster now and wouldn't be afraid to do another one
