fender bender =[

yea well heres my story: I was coming off the parkway and an SUV stopped short and i ended up lightly tapping it =].. i looked at his car as we pulled over and his car looked perfect as if nothing happened, therefore, so should mine right? - wrong... my pathetic front bumper has an indent the size of a baseball.. its not really noticeable but it annoys the **** out of me to look at.. so heres my question... should i buy an OEM front bumper and paint it BSP or should i just buy a body kit, well only the front bumper.. i don't know if that would even look nice.. i'm so losttt... any opinions would be great

No body kit, just get the oem. It will not look good with just the front.

Be sure to leave yourself enough room so that you don't "slightly tap" people who may "stop short", because you're going to encounter many more of those scenarios.

Instead of buying a bumper, just fill it with a baseball.
