Looking hard at that sale right now...

As for local craigslist... heh, it's pretty barren up here in Maine. It was tough just to find a used Macbook, and I ended up making a trip to Boston to buy one off some chick that went to Harvard :P

Thanks for all the help guys, also, it being a coupe bumper would explain why the clear corners I bought didn't fit. Before I go blow another $30 on another set for a coupe, I'm assuming that is all I have to do, buy a coupe set of corners? They'd make it look a little better for now... at least
Dude. Don't bother with that. Save your money to get a bumper that fits your car.

I can sell you my OB OEM bumper if you'd like

Perhaps painted DG and then you can install it yourself using the DIY here

If you bought sedan clear corners, they are a completely different shape than coupe ones. I agree with others, don't spend another cent on that coupe bumper -- even $30 for clears -- just continue to look for the correct one for your sedan, either OEM or aftermarket.
