not sure how helpfull this is, i work as an appraiser at a body shop, but we are in pottsville pa unfortunatly, if the drive is not an issue sure i could hook ya up.

FYI, im a manager incharge of pricing etc etc so what i say goes.

is the bumper new?

is it an aftermarket or oem bumper?

do you know if it came primered or raw?

and damage at all even minor scratches count as they need to be considered before prep.

if you bing the car and a new bumper could get done for $350-400 (if anyone knows anything thats a huge savings)

we are a full body shop not a mom and pop use dupont and standox paints and clears

Bump for a good body shop. I have yet to find a reputable one around me. My "Mazdaspeed' style bumper will be a pia to install and will need modification for sure and painting. Of course that'll be in a few months.
