Unhappy Cracked front bumper

Hello everyone! I got my 2014 Lexus IS 250 F sport about a year ago, and unfortunately, took a far turn and hit the left side of my bumper on a rock which cracked it. I was wondering if it’s worth it to buy a new bumper or if it’s fixable. Please let me know your thoughts.

I think it would be fixable. Try taking it to a body shop and see what they say.

I bought a pre painted bumper from these guys before for a different car and the paint was a good match for my black metallic and it was a perfect fit and under an hour to install. Looks perfect under $500. I spent more time researching YouTube videos of bumper removal and installation than I did actually changing it out. Easy.
