This sounds like the best and cheapest option to me...

Do you mind me asking how much yours was unpainted? Or do they come pre-painted?
All of the bumper covers come unpainted new (just gray primered). The good deal is to find one used that's your car's body color. But finding one used, without rock chips, and that's not a ton to ship (preferably local) is asking for a lot.

I got lucky and picked up my GT3 bumper locally for $400. I had to have it painted, but I threw it in with a bunch of stuff (humps, side skirts, rear bumper) that was being painted, so the cost was not bad.
