Default Ultrasport front bumper conversion

Hello,

I'm considering doing the ultrasport front bumper mod on my 2005 A4. Although I'm not that handy the DIY thread seems pretty straight forward.

Has anyone done this and can share your experience? I'd hate to mess up my original bumper.

Or does anyone know a shop that will do it relatively cheap (including paint)?

Thanks!

I did it, it was super easy, took maybe an hour, I don't think any shop will install it like the diy cutting up the bumper and such, I used a jig saw and a box cutter for all the cutting and trimming.

As for a paint shop, where are you located, I know a few painters around winnipeg

Thanks for the responses. I'm located in Toronto so cant use your recommendations. How much did you pay for the paint job?

the painter was a friend of a friend, charged me a 66oz jug of whiskey to paint it, I can't see someone charging more than $100-$150 to paint it as it comes primed and is brand new
