    $400 Front License Plate Delete

    Stopped by a trusted local body shop today and discussed getting my front bumper painted (including filling the license plate holes drilled in my bumper) so I can lose/relocate the front plate and also stop getting irritated at the lack of clear coat every time I look at the bottom of my bumper.

    Shop will remove the bumper, sand, repaint, and reinstall for $400.

    Will be dropping off next Thursday as it stands right now.

    Thoughts, comments, and opinions welcome......

    Yeah-- they are expensive, but they are by far the best around. Very high quality work.

    I can get it done for half that at several other shops that I trust and do ok work, but I'd rather spend the extra and get a job that is going to look great and last.

    $400 does seem a bit expensive, but as long as they do a good job I guess it doesn't matter! What are you thinking of using if you re-locate the plate?
