Look in a junkyard or find someone in your area that has one that you could buy.
Where are you from?

Can you post some pictures of crack? I've been reading up on repairing tears/holes to bumpers and it seems pretty easy. My rear bumper has a tear and my front gfx needs some patch work. Junkyard bumper is around $100 with new aftermarket at $300. Bumper repair kits range from $20-$70 depending on how bad damage is and what you want to do.

Check out this link. Has video clip showing how to repair and paint bumper. 3m has similar stuff on their website.

Re: I NEED A NEW BUMPER COVER! =(!

I have seen a lot of parts on craigslist where people will part out cars too. You might have to search some towns farther out around you but I feel that a 4 hour round trip drive would be worth it. I found a 91 Z-28 hood near me for $100 on cragislist.
