Insurance companies would still prefer to spend as little as possible, and if that means settling for satisfactory 2nd hand parts then they'll take the common-sense approach (especially if someone else has already been clever enough to source them on their behalf).
Just a thought but when I got my car it had no front bumper on it. I bought an XPG one from a trader who is no longer on this site and had it sprayed. That was nearly 2 years ago and it's peeling a bit around the edges to reveal the original paint underneath.
There's probably good paint still under there.
I wouldn't mind that one that Pete found as my car is Firefrost (CEV). If you want a chat about going halves on it and then having mine, PM me.
