rearended- now which bumper to get?

guys.. i was rear ended a month back and the insurance of the other party wrote me a check for damages and will cover any more damages if the body shop i go to finds anymore. Well the check comes out to 1585. I need a rear bumper and a tailgate for my tundra. As for the rear bumper i wanted something more solid than OEM and i like the one that BENTUP has.. and BIGCOUNTRYCUSTOMS. Both of their base models are really simple and sweet. BCC base bumper is $305 w/ rear mounting lights (http://bigcountrycustoms.com/bumper...ig/bumper12.jpg) and BU's base model is $400 (http://www.bentup.com/RearBumpers.html) That is almost $100 difference. do any of you run these and have experience with these first hand? THANKS!

I'd go with the bentup as it looks pretty heavy duty and got a little better protection for the sides......

What do you have? Taco? Runner? Year?

Don't forget about MARLIN

Or have a local fab shop make you exactly what you want with no shipping.
