99 boxster - Scraped front bumper on road debris - Recommendations on replacement?
Hey all,
Well, took possession of my 99 boxster on Saturday and today...road debris came out and scraped the driver's side of my front bumper fairly significantly (deep gouges, about 8-10 of them, spread across 8" high and 12" long).
Going to see if my comprehensive insurance will cover this.
Between the gouges and such, I'm guessing I'm going to need a whole new bumper cover. Which is fine, since it's had some scrapes on the bottom front from curbs.
I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for replacement?
I can do OEM, but I was considering:
1. A 2001+ Boxster S bumper if it'll fit and work the same
2. Another bumper if it's cost-effective and fits the same
Looking for recommendations on how I can work this into a plus, hopefully spending only my deductible.

P.s. If insurance will do it, I'm going to work with Cavallo Auto Body in Newtown Square/West Chester, PA....they seem like the best in the area.
