Have you had a bumper painted and installed?

I'm looking to buy an m3 style front bumper for my e90. I'm looking for a shop to paint and install it. If you have had something similar done can you tell me how much you paid? I'm not sure what a good price for that job is.

Also, if you have done the install yourself how difficult is it? I'm no body guy, and I figure all of them will need minor adjustments to sit properly.

I no longer need any advice on this, my friend is going to take care of it for me.

Careful with aftermarket bumpers, they may not have perfect fitment. Might want to have it fitted, adjust and modified painted and then reinstalled after paint

Hey thanks for the info. My friend works at a reputable paint and body shop and said he can use his employee discount to do the work for 28$. He told me he assumed it would be about 300.
