Help! NEed a new bumper

The other day I was driving on the freeway at night and saw something flying. I tried to avoid it but it ran straight to my bumper and now my grill fell off and my bumper is damaged on the bottom.

Anybody know where I can get a new one for a good price?
Or a good local shop?

Check out oempartsdirect for a new unpainted one or you could get a used one off ebay.

The insurance angle

This happened to me a couple of years ago when I hit a flying truck tire tread on the freeway (road gator). My insurance company told me that if you hit something like that and it is moving, it is covered under your comprehensive portion of your policy. If it is stationary it would have been collision. Obviously this does not apply to hitting other vehicles. I ran it through comprehensive, deductible was less, and my rates were not affected. Try it!

Yea I was going to do the insurance thing but my deductible is too high. At MB it costs around $540 to replace the bumper and the grill.
