Unhappy cool front bumper to go with OEM look?

so i got a quote from a body shop to fix damage to my fiberglass plastic OEM front bumper and its 300$ to repaint and repair....mind as well get a new aftermarket front bumper.

I have found the extreme dimensions duraflex c-sport bumper but i dont know if it will be level with my stock side skirts and rear bumper.

can anyone recommend one that is? and looks similar.

he is saying it DOES NOT sit flush, its too low

you can get a K2 remix front from BAUSauto here on the forums

its like the one you posted but it lines up with the stock sides and rear and you can use your stock grill or an aftermarket grill. pics have an aftermarket CF grill with the K2 remix and stock sport sides.

If you do this, make sure you use the OEM splash guards to help even it out. It might help.

To be honest, I would take the Karuma or Nismo front over the K2.
