Any body shop guys here?

This forum never fails to answer my questions so I won't bother calling any Acura body shops around here, I just want to know a ball park range for getting my front a spec lip and rear a spec lip painted for my ASM Type S.

I do IT work for a body shop and the owner charges about 300 to paint an entire front bumper. So something in that range.

$250 or so sounds about right. Once painted make sure you keep your car off street parking for at least a month. You wanna make sure the paint dries completely.

^^ My guy says 90 days to fully cure. No physical contact with anything.

Gently hand washing is ok, but no wax or anything for 90 days is what we recommend.

I got quoted $360.07 to get my rear bumper re painted NBP. Bumper got minor damage and paint started to crack. I haven't gotten around to getting it painted yet, I think i'll wait until it looks worse. Can't really tell from a distance.
