does anyone know where can I get a brand new pre-painted OEM front bumper cover for my 13 BRZ? I hit a huge pothole today and my front bumper is pretty much screwed all around. don't wanna spend more than $400 for that but if it is then I guess I have to

Salvage yard and get one off a same color car that was rear ended. Unfortunately it may not be an exact match due to fading etc. New ones come black and need to be painted.

"Pre-painted" simply means your bumper will be brand new and the rest of your car will look stupid.

You can do it for cheap or you can do it right by having a paint shop blend the front end so it looks better when you get a new bumper.

If you don't want to spend more than $400 then you are better off keeping it as-is.

I see them for 227 bucks OEM when googled.

I just did this for my Honda. The salvage yard had a bumper the right color. ( I was really happy!) It was a good price and had a small amount of wear that "matches" the rest of my vehicle. A good solution for smaller budgets.
