New front bumper for an 05' WRX - any ideas?

While my bumper is certainly not too embarassing, the damage on it is deep enough to not really be repairable without a replacement and so now I'm on the market for a new one.

Besides simply ordering an OEM WRX or STi front bumper, what other options are there for ONLY the front bumper? I'm looking to spend under $500 on the parts and already have something who will paint and install.

Just trying to find something that will look great and unique for the right price, if possible. Worst case scenario, I'll probably end up going the STi route - the WRX bumper is around $250 so the STi one shouldn't be much more...

Any suggestions/links/pics would be great.

As far as I know, the STi and non-STi bumper are the exact same. The STi just has foglight covers (won't come with the bumper), the STi emblem, and the corner kit thing. I don't know if it comes pre-installed on the STi bumper, but those are all the differences.

Ok, yeah, I wasn't sure if the corner splitters came with it for cheaper or not. I might just have to buy them than in addition to the new bumper if I don't find an alternative. Thanks.

Anyone know of any 04-05' bumper kits that I might wanna look into?
