How much will it cost to repair a car bumper?
How much would I have to pay to repair my car bumper? It looks pretty bad after an accident I just had, but I don’t have a lot of disposable income at the moment.

The cost of repairing your car bumper can be anywhere from $50 to $1,000 or more. The price can vary a lot based on the extent of the damage, the type of car you drive, and the shop that you choose.
If your bumper is scratched or dented, you will generally pay significantly less for repairs than you might have to pay to fix a cracked or punctured bumper. Cracks and punctures will require a patch, while can sometimes fix scratches with some sanding.
If your bumper has been damaged to the point that it needs to be replaced, however, you could pay anywhere from $300 to $1,600 or more. For an exact quote for the repairs required on your bumper,
