Default Front bumper replacement

I have a 2002 GT and the front bumper below the headlights area is cracked up real bad. I have to get the whole front bumper cover replaced, meaning the paint and the install as well. I got an estimate on it today and it was $1160. The parts (bumper itself) was about 460. The paint was about 150. The labor was about 500 and then taxes was the rest of it. There were about 8 hrs of total labor on the estimate with some of those hours being at $102/hr and the others at 70 or so. Is this as much of a rip as I think it is or am I just a naive 18 year old that doesn't understand the cost of body work.

I can get the bumper, already primed, for about 250 with free shipping. http://replacement.autopartswarehous...Bumper&dp=true

Has anyone else gotten their front bumper replaced and what did you pay? What should i be paying for a job like this. Any input would be appreciated.
