Best aftermarket front bumper for an otherwise stock MAX?

My mom got into an accident and cracked (destroyed) the front bumper of her 1995 MAX. Instead of paying the $500 insurance premium and having her insurance go up, she said she'd just get another bumber and have the whole car painted. She's giving me the car summer of 2003 so I'm looking for the best looking bumper I can find for an otherwise stock MAX. I know stillen makes one, but what other choices do I have guys? thanks in advance.

P.S. not trying to spend more than $250 for the bumper.

for 250.00 total youre not going to get much other than a stock bumper, or a used aftermarket one.

id just convert to 97-99 front bumper, then when u get the car put the stillen lip and all on it. i think any of the other bumpers are outa your price range and depending how your mom drive she might end up destroyin a sarona or skyline bumper. good luck with it

do a front end convertion like Nismo said, but also add a Stillen Lip for $180 from Avalon Racing.

Bumper covers are usually around $150ish.
