Aftermarket front bumper or?
Hi all,
I honestly didn't know what to call this, but I could use some opinions.
  • I like the look of my existing one but it has more than a few cracks, chips and a piece missing.
  • I really only like the aftermarket bumpers but I have read some poor reviews about them.
  • Are there any good aftermarket ones?

I would want to replace that center grill material as well.

I have a spare white tab from another car.

If it didn't have that broken tab, I'd say just repaint it...do some ebay and salvage searches and get a another one
