What does it cost to have a Dodge Dakota’s front bumper replaced?

I’m taking my Dodge Dakota into the auto shop tomorrow to have the bumper replaced. I’m not really sure what to expect, though. In terms of price, I mean. What does something like that usually cost?

It typically costs between $250 and $800 to have a Dodge Dakota front bumper replaced.
The bumper itself can cost anywhere from $150 to $500, depending on its overall quality. That’s a pretty big window of possible prices—but if you stick with simply replacing the stock version of the bumper (rather than going with an aftermarket upgraded bumper) you shouldn’t have to pay more than $150-$175.
A large portion of the price comes from the cost of labor. You should expect to pay between $100 and $300 in labor fees to have a professional install your bumper for you. On average, bumper replacements take one to three hours. And, since the national average rate for mechanic services is $100/hour, you’re looking at $100-$300 for labor.
That said, mechanics all have their own hourly rates—some will be much higher than the national average, and others will be much lower. It’s worth taking the time to get quotes from multiple auto shops and compare their prices—it could end up saving you a lot of money!
