Worst Case Scenario happened..

After helping a friend in Austin move all damn day, i was leaving her apartment (sober, mind you) and i took out the front bumper of my 2010 hopping a curb. Minus the eye doctor appointment I will be making on monday, I have to drop more money to fix my baby. The damage was confined to the bottom of the bumper only, but the entire thing needs to be replaced as soon as possible. I know this is all my fault(last thoughts were thank god there isnt a curb there) and i know i need to take care of my eyes so this doesnt happen again. That being said, should i replace the stock bumper or move to one of the new transformers bumpers? How much am i looking to spend and what do you recommend? Thanks for the help, and just so you know, there is nothing you can say that will make me feel worse.

2010 victory red 2SSRS with the original aftermarket vinyl black stripes which continue onto the bumper

I don't have numbers on how much those T2/T3 bumpers cost...but if you can afford it I say go for it. Spend a little money and get a unique look.

I guess my issue is if I should go for the modern look or keep my 1 year old car looking "classic".

Keep the stock bumper. The T2 and T3 bumpers look like crap.
