Default Need a good body shop

I put on my rear bumper this past weekend. It fits great along the top but hangs over a 1/4 inch on each side. I need to take it to a body shop and have them shape it and paint it for me.
Anyone know of one around the Richmond/Hopewell VA area?
Also, how much should I expect to pay and what questions should I be asking?
Thanks

Hey,I cant remember if you said it was fiberglass or not.If it is ,why dont ya try taking it back off and grinding some excess off of the edges of the middle section.I am assuming it is a splitbumper not the fake seam bumper. :seeya

Does anyone have at least an estimated price range for final shaping and painting of the rear bumper?

without looking at it ,I would say youll spend about $1000 to do the bodywork and get it lined up good .then they will have to basically repaint the whole back end of the car. :yesnod: :seeya
