Pics of the bumper?

Insurance company's obligation is to repair unless virtually impossible to fix. You can demand all you want but they are not obligated to replace. What they are not allowed to do is hand it back to you and it is not to your liking because it is not visually and functionally back to its original state. If not fixed or repaired to your standard, they must fix. Do your research on who will be fixing your car. You are not obligated to go to their network and can choose where to take your car for repairs.

Edit: You can also cash out. Depending on the amount you agree to take, you can get a new bumper such as the '15+ Nismo or a replica amuse or Fuji and just add more out of pocket to paint and install. At 1200 to 1500 you will have more than enough to do it.
