Your help is appreciated! I've searched around and finding what I'm looking for isn't as easy as I had imagined.
The stock bumper on a base or sport package costs around $600 to be either repaired or replaced. The nismo front is around $1500 for front and maybe a little less for the rear.

Amuse replica in FRP is around $600 per piece (front, rear) - sides and wing are cheaper. However, you'll still have to pay to get them painted and installed. Not only that, but you wanted CF. Which means its more around $1000 per piece. And replacing only the rear in Amuse might look funny, but I have a friend who has only the rear replica amuse, and doesnt look that bad. But he has a '13.

Anyways, what im trying to say is that upgrading wont be "a fraction of the cost" of a stock bumper. I also got rear ended, body shop wanted $600. I told them I would find a better deal. And I have been looking ever since haha...

Real amuse is around $5-6k. Replica without the wing is about $1800. Then the wing is an additional $400-500
