Bumpers were $125.oo apiece to have powder coated. Took plastics parts off my self and sanded the hell out of them (approx. 4-5 hrs labor with a DA sander). Saved alot in labor cost that way. Actual paint job on plastic parts, removing bumpers and replacing same came to about $400. Hard to say exactly as I was rear ended and had to get a new rear bumper anyway, so most of the cost was covered by other's insurance company. Brushed aluminum bowtie is from Truckperformance.com-$26.00. Plan on getting some nice wheels soon to set off the new look as soon as I can decide on what size (18" or 20") most likely 18" because its a daily driver and need to keep its usefulness as a "truck". Also hard to choose with all the choices on style out there. (never knew so many ugly wheel styles' existed). Hope this helped you.
