Front bumper absorber

Can anyone tell me the cheapest place to order a new front bumper absorber from? The cheapest I can find is $23. Thanks!

These guys have alot of OEM parts. Can't find the front bumper absorber on it but i'm sure if you call them they might give you better info.

BTW I got into a wreck and mine might be broken (but to scared to check under the bumper), where did you find that $23 absorber at? Just incase i have to get it as well.

I don't know what the average price is and I just wanted to make sure I wasn't getting ripped off.

where did you find that $23 absorber at?

yeah, well, nothing about a car is cheap.
I had to replace one bolt that goes into the caliper and it looks like something that you could pick up at Home Depot if you knew the right one....it was $8. And that was the cheapest place. NAPA wanted like $17 for it. That is outrageous!

dealer retial is ~40.. i asked about it..

even though its jsut styrafoam.. its really dense high impact styrafoam.. i thnk its worth it.. your bumper will pop back out and look better if you ever hit anything going under `5mph..
