I have a large set of cracks on the front bumper of my car.. (it looks like the previous owner hit a small dog or something..) The cracks are pressure cracks so Im guessing the guy was going like 35-40mph... idk though.

1. How much would it probably be to paint my front bumper to match the rest of the car EXACTLY

2. Could I fool the insurance companies?

 

It depends on the quality of paint job you want. Cheap would be under $500, less than your deductible. Quality would be more. I wouldn't do my insurance, because they'd return the favor with higher rates. I had a bumper problem too, a litle smaller, I was froliking around and went over some bushes. If I was going to take care of my front, I'd do the whole body kit, or at least bumper body kit. I like saleen look. But hey, maybe you like the stock look! I like stock look too.

 

Fool em yes if you don't get the brightest bulb but yea kinda ify

Match the paint is VERY hard but it is somewhat doable my old red stang had a new fender due to my dad droping a compressor on it bymistake long ago the paint job was good enough not to tell on the new 1 but if you stared at it for a while you could see it was new paint somewhat......

 

The thing is that black is probably pretty easy to match with the rest of the car.. Iwas just gonna wait for when I have enough money for a full-blown paint job but I want to enter my car int he car show next year and this is the only thing holding me back!!

 

I agree with that, BUT there is really no such thing (in my opinion) as just putting a Saleen style bumper on, and being done with it. Then you will want the scoops, and side skirts.......then you will imagine just how perfect the "lines" of the car would be if you changed the spoiler and rear bumper too....
