4th Generation Need your opinions!!!

My girlfriends brother backed into my 97 camry last night and I need a new front bumper now, car is otherwise fine. He is paying for everything so I kinda want to look at doing a aftermarket bodykit since it will be free for me, should I keep the stock bumper and cut out the top grille or do a boxer bumper or the evo4 bumper? I dont like the extreme bumper or any others but I like the boxer and the evo 4. I am concerned that the car is lowered about 2.5 inches up front though, will I still be able to drive or will an aftermrket bumper be on the ground? What do you guys think? As long as the bumper will clear the ground by like4 inches I think I am fine.

Go for the EVO bumper! IMO i think it looks the best. As for the stock bumper.... Keep it. Cut out the grill and just experiment on it. It's damaged so your not really losing anything if you mess it up. Plus if you can work fiberglassn you can make a custom front bumper just for fun

my trd valances scape at time on houston roads. I don't know st. louis roads....depending on that...make your selection. I'd just go for OEM bumper...why stick it to the dude! A junk yard may sell it to you for 120 (assuming they have your color).

Im gonna stick it too him cause hes a jackass and because I will only charge him for the front bumper, sideskirts and rear will be paid by me. Is there anyway that I can find out dimensions or measurements of the evo bumper? Anyone want to tell me how much lower exactly than stock it is?
