Today the car infront of me kicked up a shingle and scratched the hell out of my front bumper. The guy at my body shop gave me an estimate for $350, and a lip for telling him that I would think about my options because apparently I was wasting his time. He's not getting my money after that.

I found a replacement bumper on bumpers.com and he said they could match my vista blue paint exactly. Has anyone else dealt with them, or any other company for this kind of issue?

 

It is difficult to match paints that
are applied to metal and to plastic,
even if it came out of the same gallon.
That is because you have to add a flex
agent to the paint for the bumper.
With that said, even a great body
shop will have the same problem.
I would take my chance on the new
bumper anyway.
