Default paint hook up?

previous owner had the front bumper repainted but the place must not have taken the grills out, because it is chipping all around them and driving me nuts!

looking to barter electrical work in return for getting my bumper painted if anyone here knows of a place in nassau or suffolk...

^ I hate when that happens. When paint starts to chip it's usually a sign of a crappy painter. Isn't there a paint job warranty? I need to paint my em1 front bumper and a couple of other parts as well.

Usually, With paint, you get what you pay for.
I highly recommend Elrich in Riverhead.
I think it would be hard to barter your trade for his great skill.
Not sure how many reputable paint shops would do so either.
Get an estimate from Elrich and let me know what it is.
I'd be willing to pay you to do electrical work at the cabin to equal the cost.
This offer is for Elrich only. I had two bumpers done by him and have had electrical work by you...both quality jobs.
And if you think the drive to Riverhead is too far, you're wrong.

Elrich has painted 80% of my car at all different times, and many of my customers.

His work shows year after year.

You will enjoy the "wow mint car man" compliments.

That sounds like a good idea.... What were you looking to get done?


Just for a rough estimate of what I'm looking at. For anyone that has used them, What is a ballpark for a front bumper?

Are the side grilles and center grille still black? or are they covered in paint? They are supposed to be masked and left bare. This will affect price.
