Need a new bumper. Time for body kit?

Hey guys.
So my mom nailed my car this morning by backing out into mine. So much for my 15-year-old-rust-free-original-paintjob-in-showroom-condition. No joke. It used to be mint. Her excuse was "well i didnt see your car". I retorted with "ITS NOT A ******* BAG OF PEANUTS". So now she owes me mad money. So i'm thinking of getting a front aftermarket bumper to replace the damaged stock one. Any suggestions? I'm looking for something along the lines of a body kit, but i don't want a full one. Just the front/rear bumpers if possible. It's an 87 GXL
Thanks guys.

theres an al-right front bumper that corksport sells... it keeps in line with the rest of the car, but still looks pretty aggresive.




its 399 plus shipping..

Hey check the nose on BOOSTD 7's purple TII (see rx7club's photo gallery).

That's a pretty good looking one.

Bomex front and back look good without any side skirts. Pretty cheap too.
