Default So I Slid Off The Road...

That's right.... On my way to work yesterday morning, I hit some ice on a 120 degree turn, going slow enough to only bust up my bumper. It was cold enough that the bumper didn't give much before breaking in 3 places. I only need a new bumper cover. I was considering an IS-F style bumper. Either way, its an 07, color SGM. How much should I expect to pay to have it painted? The bumper cover has many positive reviews, all claiming no modification to make it fit. So, I'm just looking to test fit it myself, if all is good, take it to a shop, drop it off have it sprayed and take it home and put it on.

Probably around $300 for a good paint job

Looks good man, where did you buy that? Did it need any trimming or did it fit right up?

everything fit right up no problem. Grille, lights and everything. I actually prefer this bumper instead of the original OEM bumper
