Default Rear Bumper Replacement

Blew a tire on the highway, ripped apart a chunk of my rear bumper and side skirt. I'm looking to get a replacement rear bumper. Should I just get a replacement that's oem style, or are there subtle aftermarket bumpers that I could use without it seeming out of place? My car is entirely stock except for black rims, emblems, door handles, and front fascia (small section of front bumper below the grille, not sure if that's the correct name), I also will be getting darker tint, smoked tail lights, and 2006+ style headlights with a blacked out housing. So in terms of body parts, she's all stock, so while I could get a nicer looking aftermarket bumper, I feel like it might look out of place, what do you guys think?

Most people either go front lip/mudguards, front bumper/sideskirts/splitters/diffuser/etc., but no one in their right mind only goes rear bumper. Just get a stock one

^^^ Just depends on what you can find. Used parts are always open to cash negotiations. If you know anyone that works at a body shop I'd ask them to hit up their vendors for aftermarket 'oem' pricing. You'll probably need to get it painted no matter what anyways. Good luck
