Default Front bumper

Can a new factory painted front bumper be purchased?
If so, where and how much?
Mine got cracked when someone backed into me.
Fortunately nothing else was damaged.
I am really hoping to replace it with a factory painted one.

Unfortunately, no. Factory bumpers must be painted.

No, nor would it necessarily be a perfect match. Depending on the color of your car, a first rate body shop will not only paint the bumper, but also blend it into the fenders.

Don't feel bad, I had a lady on a sell phone back into me and crack my bumper under the grill, in a left turning lane. She got a ticket for being in reverse in a left turning lane. Unbeleivable, $670 for labor, bumper skin and paint.
