Bottom half? Huh? A bumper is one piece. You either replace it entirely or nothing at all. A bumper should run you around $350-400 unpainted

same thing happend to me ... except im not sure who it was. anyways, I don't really want to go through the insurance co. becuase it the beginning of Jan i get my good driver discount back. I gotta pay $256 a month right now, and my ins lady said that would be cut in half, so I think that it would be better to just pay outta pocket and suck it up?

^^I thought the bumper was plastic! No banging it out if it is. It is way to cold for me to go out and check but when I had a guy look over my car for a clear bra quote he told me that the bumper could be skipped since it is mad out of plastic and it might be cheaper just to repaint it if it gets chipped.
