Front bumper?

Are there any companies producing front bumpers for a face lift E55?

I just noticed another nice crack in mine today. The driveway at the place my dad lives is brutal and I almost always scrape hard on it. I've also had a few parking block encounters which don't help. I'm thinking about just getting a new bumper and am wondering if I'm going to have to go used.

The paint is ****ing hammered on my car (especially the bumper) and I'm planning on plasti dipping it later in the year. I'd rather not do that with the bumper in it's current state.

I wouldn't bother trying to find a new Bumper. You would be surprised on what body shops can do nowadays. When I had small accident (hit small truck tire on highway/cracked bumper) in my case they did put on a new OEM bumper plus I had them re-paint the fenders/hood and also had the black mesh painted silver. They did offer to salvage my old bumper but I opted not to.
