Is the bumper metal or fiberglass? If fiberglass, it might be cheaper to have it repaired and painted. You can call salvage yards on this list and see if the part is available:

Good luck with your search. I'd second the vote for getting it repaired if possible. Got any pictures of it to post?

I caught the right rear corner cap on of steel channel. Pulled it loose about 12" cracked it from the right rear lower corner up diagonally about 10 feet.

Newmar repair facility suggested the cap would have to be replaced. Out of production, require custom made cap. Est $10k to 12 k.

Shoreline Repair, a boat repair company fixed it. Good people, did a good job. $2,200. Had to remove the rear cap, then repaired it on both the inside surface, then the outside. Can't see it at all.
