How much is a front bumper?

Had a small little fender bender today and the other guy just kept driving. I don't want to go thru insurance because even with my clean record, I am paying 2000/yr (22yr old) so I would like to get a new front bumper. How much is it and how much to paint it?

According to CAPS they seem to come pre-painted. What color is your EVO? I'll get you a part number and you can call your stealership.

[EDIT] I just saw your profile.. Forgive my ignorance!!

I just got mine out of the body shop. The bumpers come in white plastic so they have to be sanded and primered then painted and clear coated the cost for the Front bumper is Approx. $450.00 from the dealer.
