I was wondering

How much an average job is to fit and paint a front bumper.

I got one made of fiberglass, but I need to get it fitted and painted to match the silver color on my car, cause my stock bumper has a hole in it from being wrecked (:

Just trying to find a general price on it so I know I'm not getting jipped when I bring it to a bodyshop.

Thanks in advance

Well, all depends. Some body shops have terrible paint setups and their painters are less that capable, but they might give you a good deal because of that. Just be careful.
I know someone who knows someone who works at a body shop. Pretty shoddy looking place, no paint booth, etc but the guy who paints does a decent job (no orange peel, thats always a plus lol) and he painted my rear bumper for $100.
I'd say $150 tops.

ya just painting shouldnt be more than 100-200. fitting maybe 50 depending on how bad the fit is to start with.

Good because I already like the back bumper hehe, although I may add like a lip kit later on or something, I was just hoping it wasn't too much cause college is coming up and it's damn expensive now-a-days

Hopefully I can find someone that does a decent job, for a fairly fair price. :P
