Default OEM Rear Bumper - lady rear-ended me today..

Whats a price range on a replacement full rear bumper? I have an 06 Camo.

The lady is writing me a check and i want to be sure how much it'll cost before screwing myself over.

Call a dealer... find out how much they charge for one. It'll be on the higher end and go from there.

If she's paying for it, the dealer's your best bet.

Good idea, i'll give it a shot and post up how much it is. I was hoping to find a place to order online in case this lady complains on the cost and tries to not pay me anything

So just pay for the painted cover and install it yourself...

No reason to pay the extra $50 bucks for install.

Of course, i'm not a nubcake, sorry if i came across as one. Just wanted to post up the info in case anyone was wondering.

And there's no way in hell i'm paying $300 to have just the top part of the bumper painted,my best friends brother is an awesome painter, i got da hook ups

So the lady gave me $450, i'm buying my friends old stock bumper and prolly cost $150 to paint it if that

I'm going to be shaving both sides since i'm getting the whole bumper repainted anyways. I might end up not selling my car and running air suspension again in the near future so i can get some shaving done for free while i'm at it

I had a lady bump into my car parallel parking. She put about a 1" gash in the paint of the rear bumper. She went shopping with the car still there, left no contact info. I called the cops. Before they arrived she came back, and had the nerve to ask me to move my car!! The cop arrived and almost charged her with felony hit and run. I took it to a autobody shop who removed the bumper and painted it, it was $672.

HOLY ____, sucks for her. I can get the rear bumper cover (top portion) sanded/painted for $150~ from a few people i know ... pulling the pinched portion of the unibody will cost more tho, if i can't fix it myself (i've been tryin lol)
