I don't know about the price but most bumpers are sold without the additional valance pieces (that plastic you talked about). Either you take them off the old bumper or you have to find and purchase those extra.

The link is to an aftemarket bumper, so it probably doesn't use the plastic cover. I have heard before that aftermarket bumpers are often made of thinner, less quality steel, so you may want to keep that in mind (except of course the big strong aftermarker bumpers like Ranchhand, Ruenel, etc).

Comp means it wasn't your fault, like your truck was vandalized by a roving band of midget punk rock Lebanese Hindu vegitarians.
Collision means you swear the pole hit your truck and no you were not drinking officer.

FWIW, I wouldn't make a claim for something so minor. It's not worth the black mark. Whether it is your fault or not, the claim goes on your "insurance record" much like a credit report and it can be considered if you get insured with a different company etc.
