It can be done for ~$600-700 if you do your research and source parts strategically

you need a lot of luck to find it for that price

I've done them for 1000+

He'd need either a friend deal, a person selling the front end in a hurry

With 2011+ headlights, it's definitely going to be over 1000. Not sure if that's what you meant lol

But from what I've encountered for the bumper alone, those who buy all OEM parts tend to cost $1k+ and others who know where to save, like buying a pre-painted bumper and the camry/corolla foglights can get it done for less than 1k. But yeah, that's why I said strategically.
