3rd Generation HELP!!! Camry got into an accident

Hi guys, just a few days ago I let my sister drive my 95 Camry to and she got into an accident that wasn't her fault. Like an eighty year old lady ran the red light. The damage to my car was in the bumper near the wheel and that impact lead to dents above the tire and parts of the door. I was wondering which kind of bumper I need to buy, a primed or non primed (is non-primed same thing as raw?) I think one is for painting it and the other not. How long can I have the bumper that needs painting on my car if I can't paint it right away? Like how much money can I get from the insurance company Allstate for the damage? Going to take it today for damage evaluation.

Are the prices okay?

Thanks

From my experience aftermarket body parts never fit correctly. But if its like $100 cheaper, go for it.

Primed is if the bumer has a primed base paint ready to go, all you have to do is add the body color.

Not primed is just that.

And the bumer should last forever without paint but will look ugly as sh!t is all.

Is there a way I can paint the bumper myself, like buying a can or something and doing it myself? Thanks

You will need a paint booth, and a paint gun etc. Too much work IMO. I recommend you just buying the primed bumper and take it to a shop to paint it. Should cost less then $200 considering you already have the bumper.
