So I called around to a couple of body shops today about getting my new cobra bumper painted for my 95 mustang and they said it would be about $350. Does this sound right?

sometimes it's better to go in person b/c if it's a smaller shop, most often you can negotiate the price somewhat if you show them that you're ready to let them do the work. i'm assuming $250-350 is the going price range depending on the shop.

Depends on if the bumper needs body work...should be somewhere around $350-500.

Well its new never been painted urethane. it only has a couple of scratches and gouges from sitting in my friends garage so there shouldn't be that much prep work involved I would think.
