Repaint?

I'm gonna have to get my door, left fender, hood & bumper repainted (front)

What's that gonna cost (OUCH OUCH OUCH )

well I don't hafta get the hood done, but I'd like too.

As for the Bumper -- does it come prepainted from Acura? Would that be cheaper?? (like the trim strip was prepainted and cheaper to buy a new one than it was to have it repainted)

Cuz the bottom of my bumper on the psgr side -- there are two very large chips of missing clear coat

i had to get my bumper repainted for my emerald green 00 TL, and that was 200 just for a large buff on the left side. this was done at a shop.

you should just get some of that carbon fiber paper and cover your hood with that. that will save you some money and it will look badazz!

What is the reason you are painting this parts of the car??
If you do, I'll recomend getting it painted with dupont paint.

Acura does not sell the bumper prepainted.

acura does not sell prepainted bumper because of the paint fade on cars due to the sunlight. My car got hit 5 days ago and went to Acura dealer the next day and asked them if they sell prepainted bumpers and they said no. The bumber cost around 270 at the deal which is not too bad.
