Default Opinions please, fair asking price for a NB front bumper cover?

An aquaintance is interested in buying a spare front bumper cover that i have.
I got it in a trade for some stuff when i was considering adding RSCS type bumper cover to my car, that phase seems to be over so...

The BC is gloss black, no damage, cracks, broken bits.
All insertion "tongues" are present on the two side inserts.

The current paint finish would make a track car look great, but most people that want to use it on a nice street car would need to prime / repaint due to various stone chip issues.

The BC is drilled for license plate mounting and includes the grill insert.

TIA for your suggestions.

Craig

(I'm considering calling LAPD for their price and charging my buddy ~ 40% of that ).

I'd say somewhere between $500-$600.

Used front bumper covers sell on eBay for about $300-$400 the last time I checked. I bought one on the bay for $125, but it had a tiny crack in one of the horizontal grill slats, and I know that the sale represented an anomalously low price. That was a couple of years ago, so maybe prices have gone up.

If it's a US-spec C2 bumper, I'd say $300-400 is the market value like Mark mentioned. That's with corner valances in decent shape. I got one for previous 993 for free from a great local Rennlister.
