Question $150 to paint a new bumper cover???

Sound reasonable??? A simple yes or no from someone would help me a lot. I have absolutely no idea how much it should cost so your guys’ help is my only chance.
Thanks!

$150 is about right. I paid ~$100 for a shop to repaint the faded rear wing on my Mustang GT and it requires a lot less prep work than a bare bumper cover.

That price is reasonable if they do quality work.

That almost sounds a bit to cheap. When getting paint work done, go for quality VS who is most inexpensive.

This price is from the local ford dearler's body shop. I assume that their quality will be good because of their size. But we'll see....

$150 is good as long as they do quality work.

black2k1:
$150.00 sounds good, I am getting the dealer where I bought my L from to repaint my bumper cover and my drivers door free, under warranty. I brought my truck in last week and mentioned the paint, they sent me to the body shop and he told me to make a list and they would charge it to ford. You might want to try that route first.

I had a new bumper cover for the L painted for 200, 150 is a good price.
