I've had my front bumper repainted like 3 or 4 times. It's not worth paying a lot to do because eventually someone will scratch it or bump it. This is especially true for the rear bumper.

Now as far as the hood and fenders. I think I paid about $500 for hood and another $500 for the fenders. The clear bra is a good idea as are the Das Schield hood protectors if you carry a lot of stuff in there like me. I had the clear bra on from the original owner and you could hardly see it unless I pointed it out. It kept the car looking spotless for a long time. It can be pricey but without it you will end up with a chip in the hood or fenders right away and you'll end up looking at that eyesore every day until the next repaint.
