From what I understand the difficulty between painting the plastic parts and the metal parts is pretty much night and day, so that is why repainting a bumper is no big deal.

It's no big deal because it's done all the time. Most minor fender benders are front/rear. Plastic takes no more prep than metal...in fact, usually less because it is a new, unblemished part being put on and painted off the car so no extensive masking time needed.. Smooth, Prime, Paint, Install. There is a flex additive added to the paint but that's about it..
