Rear bumper paint estimate!!

Hey guys I just bought a WW JDM rear bumper for $400. Its a pearl white and planning to get it re-painted to match the 2006 USDM white. I got a couple quotes already..one for 380(dealer) and one for 200(non-dealer). Is 200 a good deal?

Should be around $250-$300 for just the bumper.

I think $200 is a good deal if they do a good job

I would also say that $200 is a good deal but make sure that they are aware of your expectations before they start on the job!

^^ Yep I've seen this happen as well. SPECIFICALLY STATE you do NOT want the lower portion with the strakes painted. That would suck.
