New or OEM Bumper?

Ok, so now I've gone from needing my bumper painted to needing a new bumper (don't ask). New question: genuine Acura bumper or an aftermarket? I was also given the option of a refurbished genuine one, which didn't seem worth the minor price difference.

Thanks for your help.

refurbished genuine one ? I'd go OEM. Depending on aftermarket parts, they might not "hold" the paint as well. So in time they might fade differently compared to the rest of the car.

I'd go with new OEM bumper cover. I am not sure if there's aftermarket bumper available for our car yet(DEPO or TYC).

Re-manufactured bumper isn't bad depends how bad the damage is.
