4oo is about what you are probably going to hear for front or rear bumper painted/fixed/new.

The lip + bumper will probably run between 500 to 600 dollars.

really depends on where you live and the quality of the shop, I've gotten $700-1500 where I live.

i promise you molding (not just gluing on a lip that fits but cutting, shaping, etc) is not in that cost. i can easily see that being 400+ for the lip alone.

Since you're in SoCal I can put you in touch with my bodyshop guy if you want - just make sure to tell him that I sent you, and he should take care of you.

Tim (TimeforSleeep) got his entire front end done there. If you want the bodyshop info, PM me.

I just got back to the Washington D.C. area and was looking to get my whole front end repainted...I have a couple shops down the street that I have seen come out straight gorgeous....There is this straight up gorgeous mustang...Haven't been because my boy is friends witht the owner and he hasn't got a chance to give him a call in my behalf. I never like to just show up and be like oh I know so and so, they almost never really give you a steal. Not trying to be cheap, I just want a good job for a good price
