They may even pay a bit of the bumper you buy based off of the amount of the OEM replacement. the one I had my eye on was like $180. Comparatively, a new fender from the dealer is like $1000, and a reproduction one is $300, so I would think an OEM bumper would be pretty expensive. In theory, the less money the insurance company has to dish out, the better for them so I would think they would be all for fixing it with a lower cost option --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/insurance-question/44558)._
