I had a aftermarket rear lower skirt installed on my car. I was charged $1000 for the install and $500 for the paint. Apparently the painting included painting the full bumper to ensure the paint matched. So I'm guessing about $500 would be the cost.

Seeing as I wasn't the one removing my rear bumper tho, I'm afraid I can't help. However if you do find out pleas let us know. I've knoticed that both my front and rear bumpers look like they sag a little and I'd like to know how to take them off so I can straighten them up.
