    I need to replace my bumper for my 2010, and I've been shopping around for a new one. Now there's a question, do the aftermarket, non-OEM bumpers look the same?

    I'm talking about this Fits 2010 2011 Toyota Prius Base Front Bumper Painted to Match TO1000359 | eBay

    or this 5211947917 TO1000359 Front Bumper Cover New Primered for Toyota Prius 2011 2010 | eBay

    Painting myself is not a problem, I just want to know if they don't look too different or are very flimsy.

    There are different models with or without holes for things like headlight washers and parking sensors, so get one that matches your car.

    You will have a better assurance of quality if you get a CAPA certified part. Just add CAPA to your search terms on ebay.
