yep. Most shops are very skeptical about accepting someone else's primer and body work anyway. Lets say someone brings something in thats already primered, your shop sprays paint over it just like they asked, but the paint doesnt adhere well to their primer and ends up flaking off a year down the road. Should the shop still warrenty the paint, even though they didn't do the prep work? Thats a big concern with a lot of shops, understandably. Typically bumpers paint jobs are around $300, with body work and prep on a used bumper, maybe $400 or $500
