Default Where can I get a new front bumper?

What you can't see in my sig pic is that my front bumper looks like it's been riddled with machine gun rounds, and is being literally held together by zip-ties. I want a new one. Ideally, I'd like to find one the same color (or at least one of a different color with the silver two-tone), so as not to have to spend much (or anything) on paint. Where might I get one, and what should I expect to pay?

Here's one, i'm not sure about their body parts, but I bought my gears from them and I had no problems.

Thanks, 88. So that is an actual bumper right, and not just a "bumper cover," as they call it?

It is a bumper cover. Thats what that piece is called. The metal part behind it is the actual bumper.
You want a bumper cover and not a bumper.

I understand what you are saying. The bumper (simply put) is a bar with several posts mounted to the unibody. This is a "bumper cover" but it is what you want. This is the painted piece on the exterior of your car, and not like a car bra.

Gotcha. Yeah, that's what I figured, I had just never heard that term before. I guess if I can't find a plug-and-play number, I'll go that route. It would just be so nice to get one that already looks just like mine...except in one piece, of course. Thanks fellas!
