Bumper cover replacement, 99 SL500

Hi group-
The front bumper cover that covers the front of the car like a spoiler was damaged and installed REALLY bad by the PO. The PO ( dealer) says they will replace it, a common problem for the low SL & crubs. Someone at the shop missed it and I think an honest error on their part.
Are these available on a used market that can be repainted or new from a good sourse- What are they called ?
I'm to get a bid here locally and want to have a little knowledge on what I'm talking about-
Thanks for the advice !

bumber cover

This is a rather expensive item, if the seller agreed to replace it, take it back to him/them. I'm sure that it comes pre-painted according to your Vin no. when purchased from the dealer so is just a matter of installation.
My opinion
By the way there is one on e-bay for $600.00 and change sport model black.

Steve, unless there's a front clip locally in Colorado, shouldn't the dealer just get you one and ship it to you? If you get if from ebay, it's probably going to have to be shipped anyway. If the dealer is really standing behind this, let him do some of the work-

That's what I'm hoping for. Hope this isn't an omen ! Love the car so far.
