its your best bet

depending on your area it could cost in between $100-300 for both bumpers

1 new bumper = close to $500

they can match your paint as well

I got a quote today to powder coat the bumpers, they rough quoted me at $150 per bumper, depending on if they will need sand blasting or not, hopefully I can have this done before too long

Yeah, I was expecting more, and if I can't get those black Saleen rims, then I will probably end up powdercoating my rims also, and they quoted about $75 a piece on them
