So I was looking at the new fancy bumpers and grills and was wondering what the heck the cost is to paint those things once you get them since they pretty much come in just primer.

probably a few hundred, my paint guy told my brother it would cost about $400 to get 2 bumpers painted (he wanted to trade somebody bumpers but had to paint both) and the $400 is my price

I would say $400 would get you a single stage job and up to $1500 for a 2 stage is the ball park.Don't forget if you get a kit that is Fiberglass you will be looking at more because of all the body work that will need to be done to it as most all of the cheaper kits that are Fiberglass need much more attention to look good.

You could also go out and get some estimates from body shops. Most body shops will give you a free estimate.

If you're not worried about a show-quality finish, you might look into an Earl Scheib/Maaco, as they'll be far less expensive. If you're worried about it looking its best, skip over them and go straight for a quality body shop. If you don't know who to go to, go find a classic car show and ask the owners which shops they'd use.
