JDM bumper yo!
 

I don't know alot about the actual pricing for body work (prep, paint, install), so I'll ask you guys.

I can get a genuine JDM front bumper for my Galant for around $220 shipped. The only thing is that it comes folded in 3 in a box. You take it out, let it sits for a few days and it straightens itself out.

It would come used and painted, but normally in really decent condition. So for prep, paint, install of just a front bumper... what am I looking around?

This is what a JDM galant looks like from the factory (minus the grill).

I really like that but you might want to look into what material it is. Having a bumper "unfold" seems a little wierd to me. Also, you would need to get those fogs fyi

I like it, it flows pretty well.

For just painting I would say around 300-400 for prep, paint, install.

That looks really good! I like it.

Poly bumpers are very flex-able but if its folded in 3, it might warp.

Yeah, there's no chance it's gonna look right without some major repairs from the plastic buckeling while it's folded.

My intrepid had a truck back into the front bumper, it was a V dent style, ya know? (it was like the corner of the bumper backed into my bumper, erm!)

I was able to push it out and it went back to normal with just a few paint blemishes, I'm not too sure on how exactly the "guts" are but I'm sure it would of looked fine with a coat of paint or 4.

Look for reviews brother

I like the bumper but don't like the very front with the two pieces that look like I I .. hard to explain. But looks good.
