With how new the car is, you will probably not find a pre painted bumper anywhere. Plus most paint shops have to "blend" the color to match yours specifically when painting any parts. Try to find a primed OEM bumper and take it somewhere to be painted. Maaco for example. Getting it painted will probably cost more than the bumper I suspect.

Here in town, I've seen some body shops offer front bumper repaints for around $100.00. It's a way for them to drum up business, but you may get lucky - price wise - if you shop around. I wouldn't stress too much about the color of your replacement bumper, if you're gonna paint it anyways.

Good luck.
