See what I got here!

It's a 08 lancer GTSPECR rear bumper( with diffuser) from accolade guys, they are really high quality, and I love it. It will be sent to body shop for painting next week. Thanks Accolade!
BTW, any knows how much will painting and installation cost for the bumper? Thanks

Update: Today, I sent the bumper to a bodyshop, and they ask me 280 for painting and installation, I will get everything done by nextweek, then I will post some pics!

If you want a quality paint job it will probably cost more then your bumper

next time, get info first at a descent shop and buy after buddy...

Thats usually the case for paint. It costs more for the finishing of a piece than the actual part itself... Save some money on the install and do it yourself. Get a quote for paint and install and then after you got that in writing(with the breakdown of the labor hours and materials) tell them you wanna do it without the install. That way they cant rip you off by jacking up the price without install.

From having family that owns collision shops they usually charge around 200 to 300 for a bumper. You can buy the paint yourself and just have them paint it. My brother usually charges 35 an hr depending on what you needed done. It takes 5-6 hrs.

Yeah, sometimes it will take longer, because they need to custom made.
