Depends on various shops.

Go to different shops and get different quotes.

they will probably need to "blend" in the fenders as well otherwise you will be able to tell the hood and bumper were repainted. I was considering doing this and the guy gave me an estimate for $600, but he was a fellow TSXer and I think he was giving me a deal so add more to that.

I had to repaint my front end two years ago after a hit and run while my car was parked, they will have to paint the hood, fenders and bumpers. And it's going to be expensive, the PWP is a three stage paint. I don't remember how much the paint costed itself. Just make sure you go with a shop that will used Acura certified paint.

yes, if you try to trade your car in it will decrease the value of the car. someone on here said they would consider it a front end collision that was repaired so I would expect a good deduction in value for that. if you sell it privately on the other hand, the other party probably won't even notice.

did you have body damage? And did you go threw the insurance? If you did then it will be recorded, but it your just paying out of pocket and its not reported then you don't have to worry about it.

well if you are trading it in, if a service worker at the dealership knows anything about paint, they will be able to tell and will automatically make deductions in value. privately, you will most likely be fine.
