The rear bumper was hit on the left side and it's caved in. Luckily, the parking lot guys think they have a license number so I might get lucky. Does anyone know how much it will cost to replace the rear bumper?

ebay cost, with shipping, ~ 175-250
they are like 400 from dealership
then you gotta paint
be around 400-500 for a aftermarke bumper and a dealer paint job
300-350 with aftermarket and maaco paint job, which I highly dont recomend

Thanks man... I heard 1-day-paint was not a bad option when it came to painting specific parts.\'96 M5 Camaro White<br />Flowmaster Full Catback<br />SLP CAI<br />180* Thermo<br /><br />Stereo: H/U - Clarion DXZ725 <br />Alipne Type-R 6.5 Components (front), <br />Alpine Alpine SPS-1629S 6.5 <br />2 10\" JL 10w0<br /><br />\"One Love\" -Bob MarleyComment

sounds more like a pad paint job than a bad bumper.Comment

you have to prep before you paint, what it sounds like is that the bumper was just painted with no prep.. very bad paint job, bumper dont have anything to do with it1997 Camaro RS<br /><br />3\" Flowmaster Exhaust,Pacesetter headers,Catco Cat,Cold Air Intake,Clear bumper lights altezzas,chrome rear bumper letters,chrome badges, headlight conversion kit(soon to come),2 12 MTX Thunder 8000, MTX 6500d amp, Fosgate 1 farad capComment

I was talking to the guy who did the work to my car and he said that some of the aftermarket parts come with some kind of coating on them that has to be removed or it'll cause the paint to peel off. But aftermarket parts aren't as good as OEM, but they can look just as good. My Z has 2 aftermarket and the v6 has one aftermarket fender and the front bumper is aftermarket. If someone didn't know, I'd like to see them try to figure out which ones are aftermarket and which ones aren't.1999 Silverado- Bagged, colormatched and rollin on stock chrome 16\'s<br />Make love not war, hell do both, get marriedComment
