Default Questions about paint

Hey guys, I recently was involved in a front collision. I was thinking about buying a used hood and front bumper, but the parts are white. Do you guys have any idea how much it would be to paint over these pieces before having them installed? Any ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. TIA.

Prices for paintwork vary greatly, but a ballpark price ..... a higher-end shop would charge about ~$200-$250 for the bumper and about ~$300 -$350 for the hood. since they would have to paint the underside of the hood for it to look right.

If it were pearlescent paint it would be slightly more than that. I would get 3 estimates at different shops. Good luck.
