assuming it's well fitted it'll cost around 300-450 depending on the place you take it to

chances are though its not well fitted and will cost 600 or 700 to make it look right

It recently cost me $225 to have a rear bumper painted (atop factory primered). The front bumper has somewhat more complex curvatures so probably a bit more.

you should've done some research first. body mods aren't cheap if you want them done right... you really should've gotten the hood before the kit

Poorly fitted kits end up costing more in the long run. You could probably get it painted for $75.00 but don't count on it being properly primed and painted correctly.

That bumper is made my extreme dimensions... G-luck. When I got mine painted they charged me $300 by the way so just for paint I'd say your looking at about the same.

$100-200 for a good paint job.
But fit Extreme Dimension piece of sh_t will cost you double more than that.
