well guys if three of you are gettin it done and lets say your all gettin both bumpers done so that would be 3X2= 6 and normaly you'd be spendin anywhere from 150 - 250 for a proper job. But with my link it was like 100 bucks BUT i will try to bring it down to like 80.

so thats 60X8=400 bucks:O
thats like the price of painting TWO bumpers.
and this is like OEM spec type of painting none of thta cheap ****.

Those scratches look too deep for a detailer to fix..

I work for a Honda dealer and we see these kinda scracthes daily on used cars. I can recommend you taking the car to a bodyshop (I can recommend a good one) and you can get a paint blend done on it.

Lets set something up here because it looks like that a fair amount of ppl want this done.
