Default Rear Bumper Body Kit thoughts?

well i was rear ended recently, only damaged the bumper, but bad enough to need replacement. im not really into the whole "body kit" thing, but i think that this idea that i edited in paint would look pretty nice, what do you guys think? its an 88 crx si with a muffler that has single in / dual out's on opposite sides, so thats why i chose this idea cuz this is the only rear with dual exhaust spots. am i going about this all wrong and should i just get a stock or stock looking bumper?

the wings west kit is pretty common and a nice looking kit, the downfall to it is it's heavy as hell.

do what you want,,but realize if you get that rear bumper with the stock sides and front it wont look right...You should just get the stock bumper and make a cutout on the right side exactly the same as the left original hole.

yea i know i like the look of the stock bumper, but i figured that finding one would be hard, and i dont want to have to paint it either, my paint is kind of faded, so i dont want a brand new looking bumper and a faded car. does anyone know where to get stock bumpers used? i remember a post on here a while back linking to a parts warehouse where you could order parts like this that are already in the original color, anyone know that website? the color i need is yellow
