price to paint body parts

Does anyone know how much it would cost to paint my front and rear bumpers to the car color and also the bushwacker flares and the step guard on the side? I have chrome bumpers on my 4runner and I think if they were the same color as the car it would look much better... Thanks

check around shops in your area..... thats the best advice really... stuff around here is always overpriced and its hard for people on a website to be able to tell you due to economic or geographical or a ton of other reasons.....

Chrome cannot be painted too well.

It can but it needs to be heavily scuffed and primed first.

lol, I already sold it sorry. No but seriously dont you guys think the painted bumpers look better? Anyone want to trade? I also have another question, since you guys have helped me with the 4runner, I would like to do a lift on the yota. What do you guys recommend for the street and some off-road, 2" body lift and 1" progressive springs? I have the sequoia wheels on there with the stock dunlop tires, and if i go off-roading should i get a locking diff because its a 2wd or is the stock diff adequate? Thanks for the comments guys, this forum has helped me out a lot. I went from drag racing to road racing and now going into off-roading.
