Cost of Painting Bumper?

Just ordered a JDM EVO 9 bumper. Any idea what the average cost to get the bumper painted?

Also if anyone has any suggestions for a place to take it to in the South Florida area it will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Blux

a normal body shop will charge anywhere from 200-300 just to spray it, if your lucky some might install it for you too for that price. Best bet would be to open a phone book and start calling a few places!

A little less than a new clutch for your brand new IX and a little more than holes drilling into your firewall for fake nitrous purging devices...

Joke's not on me - it's on your moronic dealership. If they saw the threads you posted here, they would have rejected that claim in a heartbeat, especially the one related to your clutch going out...

You don't remember what? I didn't ask any questions. Maybe you mean you don't remember this:

The reason im asking is because my clutch didnt disengage right. and i saw some smoke coming from the engine. and smelt a lot of clutch. But it's not like i ****ed it up tho either. It's running perfect tho. But im just worried of long term.

Should i take it in? now and have them check it out/fix it? i have 350 miles on the car
Amazing they replaced it for free under warranty...
