If you're replacing or repairing the bumper... you'll need to get it painted, which I imagine isn't in your wheelhouse unless you're talking about getting a piece that happens to be the same color form a junkyard. Even then, the match would be iffy.

I would say take it to a body shop to get fixed. They typically don't report to CarFax if it's not going through insurance (but you could ask/confirm). I don't see a reason to replace that bumper, so you're likely looking at like 1500-2000 for them to repair/paint the bumper and replace a couple of other bits.
