That sucks man, I know how it feels to have something you try keep looking nice smashed into by a careless driver (the Ranger before my F150 was totaled this way).
I can see the damage on the left side of the plate housing where the plastic is creased .
I don't have a used bumper for sale but I was curious if the ball hitch took any of the impact. I keep a fairly substantial ball hitch mounted back there for this very reason (mostly for plastic-bumpered Civics and such) and was wondering if it helped absorb/deflect the impact at all.
Again, sorry for your misfortune. I hope that Dodge took a beating for the driver's carelessness!!
