don't think so, why don't you just go to your local junk yard see if they have one there or search H-T.

Don't buy the ebay bumper, and the reason why is because this person doesn't have any type of feedback. It is generally not a good rule to buy from someone like that. He/She could very well take your money. Your bumper should be fine. Go over it with a finer grade of sand paper. Start with a 120 and work your way up.

Why don't you start sanding with higher grits?

Do what ever you want. Its your choice. Its obvious you have no clue anyway, since look at what you did. If it was my choice, I would look at the condition of my bumper to see if is worth repairing. If you are just trying to fix the 40 grit scratches, I dont think you need to use body filler. Why did you sand it in the first place? To repair damage to it? Remember, an aftermarket bumper will never fit like an OEM.

no, when you apply "bondo" (body filler), you wait until its MOSTLY dry then you cheese grate it (use a tool in the autobody world known as a cheesegrater, then you do as it sounds, grate the bondo like you would cheese), then use 180 grit. Then after the bondo, you use whats called a glaze coat. It fills in the small imperfections on the bondo. Sand with 180 then you're good to (primer) seal it once it's smooth. Then after the sealer is applied, you applyt he actual primer, then paint, clear, wetsand, buff, polish.

but like said above, unless its just a small about, it's most likely going to crack if any tension gets put on it. It may be easier just to get a new bumper.
