    Last spring, I smoked a coyote going 70mph and it smashed up my bumper. As such, Subaru made the bumper essentially modular so I have to replace the whole thing (which is BS in my opinion). Every place I've had quote it wants $700+ for the job. If I get the part from Subaru Parts depot, it is $450 all said and done plus another $600 at the body shop, bringing the damages to $1,000+...for a bumper...yeah, no thanks.

    What I'm looking for: A front bumper assembly, preferably painted World Rally Blue, for a 2007 Impreza WRX STi. If it's unprimed or unpainted, that's fine too. I'm willing to pay no more than the Subaru Parts Depot price of $208.

    I figure if I can get one in the state, I can save on shipping by picking it up from the seller myself. If anyone has one to sell, or knows of a body shop who will do it for a reasonable price, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

    That's for priming, painting and installation at an auto body shop.
