Paint shop
I just recieved my new bumper and need to have the front end repainted since the bumper is in black primer. Anyone have experience with a place that gives a good deal? Thanks a lot

How long ago was that?
I would think that most paint shops could make it look good initially, it
seems like the real test of a good job is whether it peels or cracks over
time and if the matching to the existing paint is done well, which can be
a challenge on an older car.

not really computers can do a lot these days ie match paint etc etc - they have have the orig colors
and you'll never get the nose to match perfectly because it's plastic compaired to metal

Believe it or not, Maaco did a surprisingly good job with some rust and paint for my BMW, as well as for my friend's Volvo. Pretty cheap too. I'd go back there.
