Default Does this sound right (half front bumper repaint)?

This morning I scraped the front bumper on the driver's side where that hard crease is going over the wheel well. Was pulling out of the garage and caught the lip as I turned. I took it in for a quote at lunch, they told me that they would pull the bumper off, remove the burger, strip half the bumper and redo it to match the unstripped half.

This place has a quite a few good reviews locally so that's why I went there, but for this work they've estimated $495 (~350 labor, ~120 paint/supplies, the rest misc. charges and tax). Does that sound reasonable?

He also told me they'd put on a new chin spoiler (mine is all chewed up along the bottom and loose on one side from scraping), and he said they'd want another $300 (quoted $272 for the new spoiler) for that but I think I'm just going to have them take it off and toss it in the garbage when they are fixing the bumper.

Should I go somewhere else and get another estimate or do these numbers sound okay?
