What does it cost to fix a 2012 Chevy Cruze front bumper?

I was pulling into my driveway this past weekend and I accidentally rear-ended my wife’s car. It wasn’t a big crash, and my wife’s car doesn’t have a scratch on it, but somehow my Chevy Cruze took some damage. What does it cost to fix or replace a 2012 Chevy Cruze front bumper?

Ouch! We’re sorry to hear about your accident, and we’re glad no one was hurt! It’s difficult to say what it will run you to repair or replace your 2012 Chevy Cruze’s front bumper without seeing the damage, but we can at least give you a broad idea of the costs.
Some of the typical repair costs to consider are:
  • Chevrolet lists the OEM front bumper cover itself at just under $190. But this part is unpainted, and painting can get expensive
  • Dent repair typically ranges between $100 and $600, depending on the severity of the damage. Painting the part might still be necessary depending on the damage
  • Scratch repair will typically cost $50 to $600, and lands on the cheaper end if it can simply be buffed out
  • Replacing the bumper (not just the bumper cover) can get labor-intensive and ends up costing anywhere from $800 to $5,000, which unfortunately might total a 2012 Chevy Cruze (meaning the cost of repairs would exceed the car’s fair market value). We hope it’s not that!
We hope this information helps, and we’re sorry we didn’t have better news about costs. But if it’s any consolation, we can help you save a lot of money by reducing your
