Looks like another quick turn for you. Can not believe how nice they are and how cheap. Heck one back here like that, even the way it sits would be 3500-4500

"cheap" is kinda relative. I mean this is higher miles, is older, gonna be near $1500 by the time I get it home. needs tires, misc stuff, etc etc, I'll be hitting $2000 in no time on this one. I think $3000 is a decent number to shoot for on it.

I just hope there are not many surprises and I can get this one done quickly.

Old bumper off:
Image

Left bumper bracket got a little messed up, pretty typical to see:
Image

Frame side tab straightened back:
Image

this is the donor bracket off a parts jeep.....the guy was a drunk who trashed it, his idea of a new bumper was to throw on an I-beam I guess:
Image

New bumper and end caps on, fitment checked, looks good!
Image

I guess i'll prime everything just because I can:
Image

First coat of color, notice that it doesn't completely cover everything, just enough that it will stick and not run, the first coat should always be light, then when its good and tacky you can shoot your next coat.
Image

Second coat, first 100% coverage:
Image

Third coat 100% coverage:
Image

First coat of clear, one again very light and grainy, enough that you get the clear to stick(clear loves to run), and when its good and tacky you can lay top your full coats:
Image

Second coat of clear 100% coverage:
Image

Closeup of end cap:
