Rear Bumper Recommendations
I bought my car about 6mo ago. The previous owner sure enjoyed cheap Chinese knock off parts; one of them being the rear bumper cover. So I'm looking to replace it, but I'm not fully sure on what to replace it with. I was just wondering which brands or even specific bumpers people recommended.
Thanks!
Thanks!

I am biased on my setup but I would highly recommend you get an OEM bumper and then get an INGS rear bumper add-on and have it molded into the bumper.
Getting an oem bumper will give you perfect fitment. Any aftermarket bumper will not fit really well unless you really pay up and get the authentic brands. And having the rear bumper add-on molded will also ensure a perfect fit. And all of this can be done cheaper than getting an aftermarket bumper that fits from the start.
But nonetheless, here is what I'm referring to

Of course if the prime/paint costs more than the piece did...youuu might want to rethink things.

If I went out and purchased a new rear bumper I wouldn't settle for anything other than the Chargespeed, which is nearing $1k. I knew paying that much didn't make sense for my situation so I went with what I have now. I think the route I went is a 'safe' way to do it

I completely agree with that, but I think most people have the following thought process "Well a bumper shouldn't cost more than a couple hundred dollars, the extra money is just paying for the name".
