So, I finally went to my local body shop. He repaired the crack with plastic weld and repainted the bumper for $400. The bumper looks brand new and is ready for springtime. Much less effort, easier and less stress than searching for another bumper. YMMV
i think i will try with my local shop. thanks for the help!
