Question Rad replacement

Hey everyone long time no visit! So a little while back my wife and I hit a Black Bear . It messed up the bumper and caused a leak in the radiator.

I've been doing some looking around and on CarID.com there is a ton of options from OEM to aftermarket. They are all in similar price range... just wondering if anyone has preference over OEM?

**Side note
The Bear didn't survive everyone if the vehicle was okay just a little shaken up

OEM is always best but usually more expensive. Last month I replaced one in my 2003 with a Spectra brand and it seemed to be high quality and even included a plastic tool to remove the tranny lines from the radiator. And it was about half the price of the ACdelco on ebay.
