We recently bought a used 2016 RX 350 and it had some scratches on the rear bumper. I tried to touch them up but you can only do so much with that and it doesn't match perfectly. I was quoted $300 by a reputable mobile bumper repair to sand, repaint, clear the area to look as good as new. Is this a good price for a white eminent pearl color? I've seen their work and they have good results. I've also thought about repainting the whole rear bumper, but then I would have to worry about a rental car and them blending and matching the paint. How much would this typically cost to repaint the bumper cover?
A good repair shop will remove the bumper cover and paint it off the car. I had it done and it cost approx $800. But well worth the money getting it done properly.

I’m sure they did a great job but damn $800? I could see 300-500 but 800 seems high for one bumper.
Nice! Glad it came out well. How long did it take them to complete the touch-up? Good decision on going with a mobile touch-up painter. You don't need to spend $800 on repainting the entire bumper for something very minor.

It took about 3hours. Yes I agree with not repainting. The damage is not big enough to warrant that. And it’s a gamble when you have to repaint and worry about blending and matching the existing pearl paint.
