Reputable, quality made bumpers for aftermarket?

My CLK430 front bumper lower grille and opening are tore up from the previous owners. I will definitely be replacing it, hopefully soon. What are my options for some quality aftermarket manufacturers of flexible front bumper covers? I don't want anything gaudy. If it is more appealing than the stock form, that's what I'm seeking. It needs to have the foglight openings as well. Ideas?

That's a very nice looking piece! Unfortunately I'm about to head east and I don't have the cash ATM to buy that from you or I would for sure. Is that still made somewhere? I'm just shopping right now.

There are no after-market replacement for the original front bumper like most other cars. There are body kit type bumpers and some look better, some look worse than original IMO. The problem with these is that they all require a LOT of skilled fitting to look right, and are typically lower and less flexible / more prone to cracking than the original.

I really like the rims you have on the pictured car. I had almost the exact same design on my CTS-V. What brand are they?
