Painted Bumper Replacement Cost?

[GMC_SD_Ult_16]

A trailer and my truck had a disagreement and my bumper lost the battle with some dents. If I replace bumper with OEM and need the top black plastic to be replaced also what would be an out of pocket cost you would think acceptable? Denali Painted bumper and color is white frost Tricoat with sensors.....All sensors are good no replacements needed. Thanks.

New complete OEM bumper and painted with tricoat?...I'd say be prepared for $750+

Thanks lapoolboy what would you all guess it would be installed and out the door if I don't do it my self?

A few months ago a buddy of mine had to replace his rear chrome bumper with sensors and it ran him $1100. That included labor and a complete bumper, sensors and all plastics.

I just had my front bumper repainted. Also tri-coat in color ran me $900 out the door, no sensors. If I was to replace with new OEM Chrome bumper i was quoted around $1200-1300.

Got a quote of new bumper, full paint (white frost) and all black plastic coverings, installed for $1,750 including all labor, materials, and taxes.....It just felt high. Sounds like I would expect $1,300 to $1,450 range for a more fair price based on your feedback so far. Let me know if you all think differently.

If someone rear ends you you get a check for ~$1,850  from their insurance company if I remover correctly.  I can’t remember how the sensors and trailer hitch factored in. This one was Graphite Metallic.

There are some pretty nice custom bumpers online that look decent and will withstand a few bumps.  I would also ask at a metal fabrication shop if they, or can recommend  someone, who makes custom bumpers.  This is just a suggestion and something I'd consider if I was in your position.  I went through several years working in remote areas where I had custom bumpers front and rear.  A good fabricator can make you a bumper that is subtle and discrete or looks like it came off of an earth mover!

Sorry about the mishap. That really stinks when that happens. I was rear-ended this past fall. They replaced the rear bumper (painted dark slate metallic), parking sensors, trailer hitch and black plastic on the bumper. Looking at my work order, out the door it was $1,907. It was all on the other guys insurance, but that was the cost.

I did a little DIY on my front and back bumpers to change out the chrome. I spent a lot of time looking and waiting on craigslist to find a used rear bumper and finally picked up a painted silver one for $200 from a guy who put a ranch hand on the back. Then bought a paintable front bumper online for about $350. Just bought the metal part so I had to transfer over the brackets and all that on my own. Then got both painted for $300 from a guy with a little shop. The back bumper has held up fine after almost two years but had to get the front bumper repainted again because i didnt clear bra it and got tons of rock chips. This time got it painted at Dentmax Auto Collision in Plano, TX and the guy who owns that place Vinny is a super nice guy and cares about the quality of work done. I put a clearbra on the front after he painted it and had no issues

DIY and looking for used parts saved me a ton of money. Easily would have been 2000-3000 if I purchased and painted at the dealership. If you have the patience see if you can find a used rear bumper. Also a little tip, 2014-2018 the rear bumpers are the same, at least for the silverados. The one I bought from craiglist was a 2016 and I have a 2014. When I bought it i couldnt find anything about if they were the same or not, but it bolted right up (dealership told me they were different parts, but theyre the same)

 

Probably more than you wanted but thats what I did for my bumpers!
