SO, I let my road rage get the best of me and now I need a new rear bumper fo the tc... I'm looking for advice on who has the best price and if anyone knows of a place that might sell them already painted... if not then I'll just get a local bodyshop to paint it for me. Any advice is appreciated, especially if you had to buy one before.... thanks!

 

Has anybody had to replace the rear bumper!?

Geez.... well thanks for the help. 400 bucks plus shipping is a lot for a bumper, even if it is painted. I just ordered a new bumper at Advance Auto for 132 and I'm going to have a shop paint it as soon as it comes in... shouldn't be more than 200 bucks for paint and the bumper. Ebay prices are almost a joke these days...

 

the body shop i work at orders bumpers from a place called keystone , not sure bout a rear bumper but i got my front one for right at 100 bucks , and your right bout 200 to paint , but make sure they colormatch your bumper(the painter goes out to your car and checks the color with a chip book ,if it looks good then sweet if not he will need to do a sprayout) withthat said it may be off a bit due to plastic and metal seem to make paint diff colors, heck even new car bumpers are off sometimes

 

Yeah I called Keystone and they didn't have a rear one available, not even in their catalog, and I called a crash parts company located in Orlando and they didn't even have a rear one available. Finally I called Rightchoice who deals with LKQ aftermarket crash parts and they had one for me. So if anyone needs a rear bumper go into any Advance Auto and ask them to call rightchoice and source you a new one. As far as the paint goes I've got a buddy at a body shop and he's gonna paint it for me and just charge me for the supplies... but I will have him match the paint... just as long as the wife can't tell a color difference than I'm happy!

 

I was quoted $580 from a local body shop (order new bumper, prep, paint, install).

Good luck.
