Default I Need Something Painted

Ok...

All i need is my bumper and hood painted. Thats IT!!

The color is Jet Black. Paint Code #668.

All the shops i talked to want around 250-300 just to paint the hood and bumper.

Can anyone give me a better deal?

yea that is a decent price...you have to rember you are going to tape up the entire car (over spray even just a little is a bitch) ... or remove the rear bumper cover and hood and reinstall include prep time...then wet sand and buff afterwards...

250 300 bucks is decent..

or you can buy a decent hvlp gun for 100$ rent a compressor from homedepot for 50$ then buy paint.. and youll be into it for around 225$....

well after looking at it like that just pay the few extra bucks have it done by a pro

Yeah that is a good price.

You have to think that after paint that would be around $80.00 if not more. They are not trying to make much off of you.
