Question Approximate cost to paint F/G Hood and Bumper Caps

I will be taking my recently installed F/G hood and F&R full bumper caps in to be primed, painted and color sanded. The paint job must be a good quality and will be in black. I will do the R&R of the pieces myself and just dropping off the pieces for paint. What should I expect to pay to have these painted assuming the no body work is required on the pieces? I just want to get a feel for the price range. Location is So Cal.

Thanks in advance.

pbs911,

I just got the F&R F/G YB bumbers from Mike. Could you tell me some details of your installation. I have not had time to play around with them, but I did see there are no mounting holes or brackets. I got a great deal to paint the whole car for $2500. I would guess painting you components could be anything between $300 and $800.

Thanks in advanced.

I recently paid $600 to have the hood, bumper and valance painted by a reputable paint shop. They did an excellent job of matching the paint also.

Thanks for the replies. I got went down to get an estimate and it came back at $675 for the 3 pieces with me doing the R&R but the shop doing the work o nthe F/G to get it as straight as possible. Not bad, so it looks like the car will be painted and put back together very soon.
