I am also selling a new BRZ front bumper cover painted in SWP.
Paint was done professionally at Paramount in Fife, when they repaired the rear end damage on my car.
$400, pick up from Bothell.

Once the body shop gets the final bill of repairs approved by the insurance, I'll provide this document to an expert for an estimate of diminished value. Then I can go talk to insurance about it.

I said 2009+ because I'd be ok with the NA 6-cylinder engine as well if I can find it w/ a 6-speed. It's not that much heavier than a turbo 4, from what I read, but yeah, it slips into 3300s.

Thanks Redmond PD!
To be honest though, I was driving rather gingerly, was relieved to learn that I got pulled over just because of the front plate.
