Auto body repair & detailing: painting bumber on 2001 ford taurus, auto body shop, plastic bumpers

Question
Hello-I wanted to find out if a front bumber can be painted by an auto body shop-I heard that they wont paint them they want to replace it-I know these days that the bumer is plastic thats why the question? thanks

Answer
Hi Russell, Plastic bumpers can be painted in fact most new bumpers come unpainted and require refinishing as per paint code on vehicle.If there is damage to the bumper it may be more fesible to replace the old with the new . Hope this answers your question.
