Red Cooper Cost of painting front and rear bumpers

I am about to get some brand new Cooper S bumpers for my Cooper - the only problem is they are Pure White.

Does anyone know the approximate cost to get them painted Chili Red?

The bumpers are not costing me anything so the only cost is the painting (I will fit them myself)

I already have the bumpers - just need to paint them

I could do you a swap for some Pepper White ones though - brand new - or I could sell the white ones and buy yours - now thats an idea. how much do you want for them?

Owing to an accident, front bumper and grill bits - $800. This, though from a body shop that does phenomenal work on $10k Harley gas/petrol tanks. Worth it I submit.

I am looking for £200 for all the parts that came off our new chilli red 05 S when the bodykit was fitted. If you are interested will have to sort out collection as I'm in Hampshire, and although they are in boxes, they are a bit too big for the postman!

i sold my old s bits on ebay and got parcelforce to take care of delivering them for me. only cost £11.75 per box. easier than tryin to find a way of collecting them cos they aint gonna fit in the mini thats for sure!!

I am doing this - I was just asking on here to get an idea of how much other people had been charged! Thats what these forums are for.
