Default paint-how much?

i may be able to get ahold of a gt rear bumper for a pretty decent price. how much would you say it would run me to get it painted to match my car? (the bumper is yellow at the moment, my car is red.)

if you can sand and prime yourself your gonna save a **** ton and if u can mount it yourself aswell.. if you only go in for it to be painted with out in the car i would expect more than 150.. probably around 100, but if u have them sand, prime, install itll be 250..

Talk about pulling numbers out of your ***. Numbers vary on shop/dealership/etc...Best bet on an accurate estimate is to go around your town and find a place you trust to do the install and ask them. Anyone can pull numbers out of their butts, the shop that's actually going to do stuff will be the place with the real numbers.
