Awesome that they are doing it for free!!!
It would have been cheaper for them to install a Clear Bra when it was New...![Wink](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)
Now after its painted and cured, get one installed by a professional..

HEY! They arent that bad! Try a 4 cly something... Thats pretty crazy that they are repainting your bumper for free... sounds fishy... I wonder if anyone else would have that same luck if they asked a dealer to do it...

I'm probably the lone dissenting voice here, but quite honestly, I'd rather have a factory finished bumper with a few rock chips, than a body-shop repainted one. In my experience, having any repainted parts on the car hurts its resale value.

You must know the right people then. I went in a month ago to the lexus body shop and they were asking for $1200 for the hood, front bumper, and side front fenders. Are you sure they are not just going to use touch up paint? If you get it for free then congrats because I have never heard of anyone get their front bumper reapinted for free.

dang my eyes hurt whenever i wash the car because i find new chips every time! lucky you! I would get a touch up paint and try the whole process that i found online but it seems complicated and risky considering the whole sanding process.
