What Mike said. I've bought plenty of them with busted plastic. I have never had a problem with one myself. The 2182 I'm working on now has a broken grill, I'll probably put a new grill on it for around $140.00. Just my 2 cents but a decent bumper would be cheap insurance if your prone to running into things.
