so me and my buddy were comin back from cracker barrel, and right off of the highwayI hit sum gravel on the road, and my traction control kicked it and the weels spun like crazy and i lost control and went off the road


now theres a huge dent in the front bumper and i need a new one


where is the best and cheapest place to get a new bumper, and how much might a paint job cost

WHAT SHOULD I DO!!!

 

You may want to refer to the "how much for a new paint job" thread, just below this thread. We just had this discussion.
Try bumpers.com , they may have one in your color already.

 

Ya, I started the the thread....your answer will be there, look at bumpers.com

 

sorry to hear that, sometimes the TC can get in the way..

 

i found one in my color for 279

is that a good price? how hard is the install?

 

red is the most expensive paint too, sucks, i had a spoiler painted for 250, which is alot for a small spoiler. i drive a red car too.

 

dude do you have any idea what you said?
read the bold print
was alcohol a factor in this "accident"?

 

no it wasnt, and yes, the tc is wut ****ed me, and im sure there are other ppl on this forum that

can vouch and say that tc is crap


if it wouldnt have messed with my wheels, i would have skiped right over it, instead, wheels lost power,

i lost balance, and now i need a new front bumper



so like i asked b4, is the install easy? how much should i expect to pay for this

any imput is thanked

 

any1 to help me? here is a picture of the damage.

 

Like Baby said that doesnt make any sence....How could traction control coming on make you lose control???When it activates the wheels will not spin??Not like it comes on and the car starts ripping the tires loose??And to answer your ?s on install,Its not very hard to install it and should be able to be done within 4 hours time.Bumpers .com is the best place for already painted bumper covers.279 seems like a very good deal its going to cost atleast 200 for the cover and another 200 or so atleast to paint it.
