Hopefully Servco will price match the site of $175.64. Paint should be no more than a few hundreds.

09/13/09 Either claybar damaged area or find a big sticker for temporary amusement.

you gotta also add in shipping ( that is a bulk item not cheap to ship) remember we live on a island in the middle of the see and even dealers have to pay shipping. talk to rick on monday

depends on how bad the damage is. sometimes you get lucky and it's only paint transfer

that's what people were telling me at the meat, to at least help. I'm getting it fixed the week after the cruise.

No worries Jay!! IMHO, its not that bad!! Just for temporary cover up, just buff/clay bar the crap off of ther and put a vertical sticker over the crack so it'll look like nothing happened.

Right right. That one slipped my mind. But I mean the way he's making it sound with wanting a new bumper made me assume it was bad damage.

Steak, dude you fret too much about all sorts of little things. It's a car man ***** gonna happen to it. You should check out my rear bumper with all the little indentions of the bolts that hold front license plates. My neighbors apparently hit the crap out of it, they need to learn to drive standard if they going be parallel parking on a hill (and no it's not me because I don't parallel I just pull up to where I'm parking). But I've since learned and moved my car to where no one parks around me. Let um go man you going get worse damage than that lol.
