someone hit my car and I need to get the bumper and left tail light replaced. I can pick up a taillight anywhere but the bumper is a different story since it is a limited body style with the painted bumper and my paint color (midnight blue pearl coat) was only used on the 2004, no previous years. My first idea was to find one off a salvaged vehicle but I have had no luck. Can anyone recommend me the cheapest route to go to get a new painted bumper?

I am thinking I either need to:
1) get one off a salvaged car - where is the best place to search/call for this?
2) bumpers.com - will sell an already painted bumper that matches my paintcode - not sure about the price or quality, can't find any reviews from people that have purchased from them.
3) buy the part somewhere online and get a local shop to paint it - who will do a decent job for a reasonable price?
4) get a body shop to order the part, repaint, install, etc...= $texas

thanks.

why does the cost matter if it was someone else's fault?
