Factory Painted Bumper Available?

Is it possible to get the bumper already painted from the dealership like we can with the lip spoilers?

I've been looking for this as well and haven't been successful finding any place that sells a bumper pre painted.

If I make the switch, I'm going with a Sport bumper, the front lip spoiler and side sills. I would get them all unpainted to save money and then have them painted by the same person who can do a good quality paint match.

It's going to be very expensive, and not generally worth it unless you had an accident there and insurance is willing to pay for it. Expect to pay at least $3000 for new parts/labor for this.

New bumper, grille, headlights, winder washer fluid container, and then labor.

Unfortunately only the lips and rear spoilers are paint matched, everything else is primered.

Lips, Rear Spoilers, Rocker Panels, and splash guards.

I just started my 2010+ conversion and almost done in getting everything needed except the headlights. I'm doing the non-sport front though because I like that way better than the sport front. I currently have 07-09 Sport.

I purchased in great shape used front bumper for $300 painted moonlight white (will be a little off from my Ivory pearl but I can live with it till I have it sprayed) bumper came with lower center grill and chrome fog trim rings from a member on this forum, used OEM fogs for $80, decent used OEM grill with emblem for $100 that I will be painting black, and I have a buddy who can get my used 2010-2013 headlights for $500 in amazing shape. Just located the energy absorber and windshield washer tank today. I also have a sport lip currently and was gonna try and see if I can get that to fit the non-sport since the contour is very similar. If not then i will get the OEM non-sport lip as well.
