Default Should I get another OEM bumper or something else?

I had a low speed front end collision earlier (air bags didn't even deploy) but it has trashed my front bumper. I'm thinking the options are:
*Contact Si @ Hendy for an oem replacement and get sprayed*Check out fleabay for a breaker & get resprayed*Import something cheap and aftermarket from US and spray*Import something not cheap and aftermarket from US and spray*Post in FS/WTB on the off chance that someone has a MCB pre-facelift bumper for sale
I wouldn't mind upgrading from oem, and ironically I just landed a new job with company car so my S will no longer be a DD so might make it more track day focused.
What do you lot think is a good option? I quite like the Amuse front ends.
Thanks in advance

I,m thinking about changing mine to tone the car down getting a bit old for it,ap2 with lip would still match the gay kit.

my mate's just bought an amuse bumper and I fancied his facelift bumper for mine, will find out when he's fitting because then I'll potentially have an MCB bumper available

That could be a winner! Let me know if things develop.
