I need to get the front lower bumper replaced on my 96 SE Max. Pearl White. I live in Indiana. Anyone have good advice as to where to get that done, or about how much it would be fair for them to charge me? Thanks a lot.

Since you are constricted to purchasing and painting the bumper in your local area, it's best just to get quotes from local body/paint shops. They can get the bumper and paint it.
Suggestions:
1) You might be able to get a remanufactured oem bumper. It could be cheaper. I assume cost is a factor and your paying out of your own pocket. Otherwise your/their insurance company would be handling it.
2) Pick a shop and visit. If you don't like the quality, attitude or vibes from the shop, run away.
Daniel is a very valued part of the 4-gen bbs. But even he has limits. One should consider the question and determine if it's something he can answer before posting.

I'm being too mean to Jeff today.
Here's a smiley for Jeff:

Here's an option for you
"The price on a new front bumper cover already primed with the holes for fog lights costs $95.00
Rich 215-426-1117"
I haven't bought from these people so I cannot give you a reference but I found this info on ebay when they were offering a bumper cover for a GLE w/o holes for fogs. This is for an aftermarket part not OEM. I think the area code is for PA. This will give you a reference parts price when you go to a shop to get an estimate.
