Do you mean a bra or a new front clip? I'd say for a new front clip at least 100 bucks.

Around here you can get one for around $50, if you don't go to a big junkyard.

I was quoted $100 for a 91 style rear bumper.

If you have the know how, always tell them you'll take it off. That should save you some money also.

back bumpers are EASY EASY EASY to remove. $50 if you pull it is typical.

to remove a base firebird bumper (not necessarily T/A never done one, so I do not know what else there is.)

Remove intereior pieces to get to everything.
Remove the 3 nuts on either side inside the fenders.
remove tailights
remove (pull out) those plastic pop thingeis on top and bottom.
unscrew license plate light

I think thats it.

You can get one from Sherman and Associates here in MI for under $100 and it'll be brand new.
