Help, damage 335i stock rear bumper

Hi
Where can I get the 335i E90 stock rear bumper online painted Black Sapphire Met ... should I get my insurance to pay or just fix it myself.

If anyone in LA area are selling their 335i E90 stock rear bumper Black Sapphire Met let me know.

This is what my wife did to my lover


Thanks

you def do not need a new bumper. You can repair it yourself but it requires alot of work. Take it to a shop to re paint it for like 2-300$ the most. I just noticed that hole in the bumper maybe they can do something with that

I got an estimate and is about $1000 for a new bumper.. paint and install.
He told me the labour of fixing the bumper will cost almost the same to replace a
new one.

Is $1000 resonable for replacing the bumper?

$1000 may be resonable for a bumper & paint & install.

but $1000 to fix the existing bumer... from the photo seems high.

how tough is it to put plastic epoxy in the hole... sand it down with the rest of the scraped area and paint. so he's saying around 700 in labor to do the bodywork on the existing bumper!

Might be a good excuse for a new Aero Kit bumper... Concrete Poles are a bitch and that's what that looks like. My wife has decorated her car with those a few times.
