I need to fix my bumper.

I went to get a estimate on my bumper today and the guy wants like $745.00 dollars to repair my bumper and take out a little dent on the rear corner panel. Is this sound like a good price? The bumper isnt that bad. I have included a picture of the dent and bumper. He also said he would do it for $650.00 cash but no receit.

go to a dent pro for the dent...about 50-100 depending on the place...and just get the bumper sanded and repainted...which if you took off yourself and took it to a shop...would only cost about 300-400 dollars, which would be 500 dollars at the most...worth looking into...

I don't know about the bumper, but I had dent worse than that taken out of my wife's accord for $60 at a paintless dent repair shop.

They just use special tools and pushed it out. You would never know it was there now.

If the paint isn't chipped, I'd look into that before you let someone repaint it... it will never look the same as stock.

I would stay away from this guy. He sounds really shady.

I had my entire rear bumper painted for $300. The dent should be taken out using the paintless dent removal method. This guy is ripping you off.
