Hit a low curb. What's my options

Ok not paying attention while driving today I hit a low curb. So low I didn't see it but high enough to eff my bumper up. Here's some pics

Size:  151.2 KB this picture shows the hole that the plastic clip and screw goes into and it appears to be ripped. It can still be bent back to its original position but the hole appears to be ripped open.

So what's my options in the mean time? I would like a nice nismo bumper but just bought a house a month ago so funds are tight. Any cheap low cost alternatives

Your bumper isn't just damaged, it's "tore up" and needs to be replaced! You have 2 choices, check our Market place under private classified or find a Infiniti/Nissan wrecking yard in your area. Our G35s with rear end damage often have perfect bumpers all you may have to do is have it painted your body color and install!

My sister rear end hit a truck with his hitch and ball on. It pushed in on the center of the Honda logo and broke both fender mounts wide out. You have to replace the bumper .
