Where to buy new 97-99 front bumper?

I've been looking for a lip kit and from what I have seen from installed pics and on websites, the 97-99 kit seems to look much better in the front. I'm not sure if it's worth a 97-99 conversion, but I'm considering it. I figure while I'm painting the kit, might as well get a new bumper painted.

Anyway, where do people typically get the front bumper from? Junkyard may be out of the question because there are only a few around where I live and rarely ever find a Maxima. But I saw on ebay that would be shipped and primered for less thn $100. They say they are confident in their fit, but hard to say. I would like to save money where I can, but not if I end up with crap products.

Just let me know what if these are legit parts or not.

Thanks

Did you look at www.car-parts.com

And I call early dibs on your old bumper (no, seriously).

Look in the 4th Gen Classifieds, I've seen some 97-99 bumpers for sell there.

...it would be nice to find one already painted. i'm sure that would be cheaper too.

i really just started thinking about this tonight, so i'm sure if i plan to do front and rear also. (really not too much a difference between lip kit parts between 95-96 and 97-99, so it may not be worth it, but who knows.) however, high school pwned my car (i even parked at the end of the lot on purpose, but a lot of good that did...)
