      Looking for a new Front Bumper (Body Kit)

      Mine is scratched to hell and the cost to repaint it is crazy, so I'm just deciding to buy a new front bumper. What are some good ones?

      I looked at these two but I am really turned off by both so don't recommend those two haha.

      04-06 Chevrolet Aveo Body Kits from Extreme Dimensions at Andy's Auto Sport

      04-06 Chevrolet Aveo Body Kits from Razzi at Andy's Auto Sport

      I'd even be content with getting the same one, just new.

      you could try doing a kalos conversion..

      but no matter what you do, you need to paint it.. so why not just sand and respray yours? it would be like $300?

      local rates:

      most bumpers are 3-4 hours paint time..

      so 3 hours paint labor at $39 an hour = $117

      3 hours at $19 an hour for paint materials= $57

      $39 for 2 hours (generous) r&i time = $78

      $39 an hour labor repair bumper for 2 hours= $78

      total= $ 330 + taxes

      If you are set on a new front bumper, I have a body kit you might be interested.

      Problem with most aftermarket bumpers if fitment. They won't line up perfect. if you want them to, it is gonna cost extra.

      hey ive been looking for side skirts i was wondering if you'd be willing to sell them to me if Carador wants just the front bumper. can you just list real quick how much for the body kit as a whole and part by part if ur willing to do that.
