color change the price goes way up

on average each fender/wing or bumper will be around $800 each

its all the labor and prep involved that gets you, the paint for each fender/wing or bumper will be around $200 of that $800 cost

to do all you listed i would guess somewhere in the $3k range to do all that and i bet the price wouldnt change all that much to just have them do a complete respray rather then spot painting stuff which is a lot more labor and time intensive to do

Holy moly. Ok thanks for the heads up. I have all of the parts and they aren't on the truck (bought textured plastic replacements) but I may just try to sand them down myself and do a youtube DIY job, the oem paint is expensive but I think they sell pints for much less than that. The bumpershellz are pre-primed and basically just pieces that tape on and wedge over the pre-existing chrome bumper.

I knew it wouldn't be "cheap" but that was a lot more than I expected. thanks.


Edit: I guess that leads me to my next question, does anyone from around the CenLa/Alex area have a paint shop that they have had good experiences with. Painting myself will be a last resort as I suck at all things paint.
