Default My Rear Bumper... (Need some advice)

...is non-existent. I got rear ended today pretty hard, and my bumper is now completely off. Being as it was their fault, they owe me 650 dollars and have decided to pay out of pocket rather than getting police/insurance involved (the driver was 16, insurance would go up a LOT).
So I was thinking, should I pocket the money and put it towards the HFP lip kit that Honda sells instead of getting just another stock bumper? Obviously, I'm going to have to pay with some of my own cash, but since I was thinking about getting the kit anyway, it's a good time to buy (before I replace with a stock bumper). What do you guys think about this idea?
Also, some questions. It's around 1000 for the kit itself, but how much to paint and install the parts on my car?
Thanks a lot guys.

the honda kit is a lip kit not a bumper kit....you would have to buy a new rear bumper AND the kit..which is like $1000 by itself if you do the install
