The neighbor wasn't much help. She said her place would charge me $351. I don't think she was cutting me a deal at all.
The bumper itself is $229 and another $189 to have it painted! I'm not even going to look how much shipping would cost since that right there is more then having it repainted would cost. Plus I would have to install the bumper myself and I don't know how to do that. I'd probably damage the new one trying.
The scratches aren't dead center but close to it. One is over the T and the other is over the N. All three places I have gone to so far have wanted to totally strip it and repaint the whole thing. It looks to me that it should be able to be blended. I live near Indianapolis and I can't find any shops charging anything in the range people are saying they have had it done or would charge me to do it. I guess I might have to just live with them for a while.
