Unhappy New Front Bumper

Hey guys, unfortunately I beat my bumper up pretty good the other day. It's a chrome bumper so repairing it is out the window. I was wondering if you guys had any ideas as to where to look for a new one. Ive tried going to the wreckers with no luck and the body shops want 2000$ to install a new one. Anybody know where I could fine one fairly cheap? Thanks guys

E Bay. Found one 6 months ago and paid $400 shipped. It was used but a new take off from a dealer in Texas. They put on heavy duty brush guard bumpers with a winch and sell the take offs on E Bay with the color matched cover I needed.

Thanks for the response. Is there any way I can purchase the chrome piece only or am I going to have to replace the entire bumper? I only put 2 dents in the chrome section of the bumper displayed in the link but because it's stainless steel I cant bang them out. Thanks

I really don't think its its stainless steal but if you get it on e-bay it doesn't matter. Just swap your stuff over. It took me 2 hours to do the swap. In the link above the seller is selling a bunch of them. I did see a seller selling aftermarket bumpers but I would rather get a factory one used.
Good luck
