$300ish, make sure they remove the bumper cover off the car before painting.

I think the front and rear end-caps ('bumpers') are plastic ??

the acid spots i got went to the alu body of the car too but like he said repainting on top of the actual paint is fine for them i got an estimation for 170 euros bumper and the top part above the bumper. I think it is pretty fair. I will have it done Monday, thank you guys. tomorrow polish monday paint. It is going to look almost like Ryan 's xkrs. lol...
