Ouch, hope everyone is ok. You'll need more than just a bumper. There's about 10,000 bumper pics on here. Even entire threads dedicated to the subject.
 
Wow, bummer! Paflytyer is right, many, many threads on here about bumpers. My personal preference is ARB, and I have the winch mount bull bar, both on my 100 series and 80 series.
 
I've been looking at bumper pics for awhile now. My opinion, but the LX470 styling really only works with 2-3 bumpers. And none of the bumpers looks completely right if that were to be the only exterior mod as it needs to be balanced by other items.

On the conservative/classic side would be the ARB Sahara. With some nice larger A/T's and sliders, this is a great unfussy look.

Next up would be the newer TJM T13 combo as the slanted upright match the grill lines better. Since it's a more pronounced 'combo' style, it would need the above tires/sliders and possibly a rack to look balanced.

Then there is the Slee blueberry bumper. It actually goes quite well with the already exotic look of the LX. While it's exotic, it's a sleeker look than the first two. Still need some other parts to look right, but it can match sleeker additions like a rhino rack.
 
If your wife drives the LX and you aren't going all in with offroad mods the ARB combo or Sahara painted white to match the truck looks pretty nice and is probably as cheap or less than factory replacement parts with your amount of damage.
 
Noticed your bio says you are in Houston. Not sure if it's still available, but there was a new Slee bumper for sale in the Houston Craigslist recently at a pretty good price. Not having to deal with shipping makes it an even better deal.

I tried to contact the guy about the bumper and tent but no go. I never received a response on it, unfortunately.

That was sold to a Mud member a couple of weeks ago. It was posted in a thread here.
 
Thanks TeCKis for info. I have Labrak roof rack. Which is awesome! Just want to explore my options. May just go OEM. I do find if you get aftermarket bumper you have to pair it with other things to make it look right. I also have my sidesteps removed and run 285's on stock wheels and suspension. I like my look right now looks pretty balanced. I am afraid if I put on a big bumper might throw the proportions of my truck off.
