Default aftermarket bumper?

So my brother just backed my truck into the boat trailer. I'm over it, whatever. My question is do I have to go with a stock bumper if i want to get it fixed or are there any aftermarket steel bumpers out there that have lights in them. The reason I want lights is that I have found that the cargo lamp doesn't give off as much light as I need sometimes. Does anyone know of a manufacturer that has a bumper with lights already installed on it, or am I just going to have to buy a plain jane bumper from a junkyard or Dodge and figure out a way to do it myself?

I haven't seen any aftermarket bumpers except the roll pans.

no after market bumbers at all. someone backed into mine also and dodge wants 477.00 for a new one. they make hitch lights that connect to the side of the hitch. contact uhaul or any place that installs hitches. and if you dont have a hitch they also come with the brackets to mount under the frame.
