Front bumper cover and spoiler 2001

I just very clumsily managed to tear my front bumper cover off by driving over a curb and backing up. The attachments in the cover are damaged. What are the best aftermarket options for front bumper and spoiler for a 2001 996 Turbo, along with approximate cost. the car Ische lowered.
If someone has an OEM bumper cover in good shape: Let me know.

ZuffenZeus is infamous around these parts
I was able to snag a nice used Turbo front bumper for $400 on eBay. Came with all the add-ons like the grilles, lower lip spoiler, etc. Repainting cost me about $300 - $400. Personally, there are a lot of aftermarket bumpers, but I think the stock OEM is the bomb diggity bomb! ha!

Thank you for your replies.
I ended up repairing the bumper. As I have had a very hard time keeping the flexible rubber lip in good shape both on the street and (off) the track, I agree that a non-flexible, aftermarket low nose would cause me grief.
I was glad to find the lead on this list to the aftermarket lips as I have bought quite a few from Porsche in the past. I orderred one and am anxious to receive it.
