replacing rear bumper for 2006 rr sport supercharged HST

Hi all,
i'd appreciate any advice/pointers in order to replace a damaged rear bumper.
a rr specialist (not main dealer) has offered to repair the bumper for around £400+ vat but can't guarantee the longevity of the fix because its right on the corner.
they also quoted £475 + vat for a new bumper, plus labour and paint costs.....so around double the cost of the repair option.
thanks in advance for your help.
Lee

There is a reletively new procedure for welding plastic which I am assured is very robust, I know because I had mine done 2 weeks ago, and mine was a total mess (great big hole in corner) finished job you would never know it had been hit, £480 you were quoted for the repair does seem a bit steep to me though?
