Where can I get this bumper

Hi guys, where can I get this bumper in US. This bumper look similar to the S-Apec but blend in as one piece. I've been thinking maybe buy the front lip from Acura and take it to the body shop to customise it like this photo below. What do you guys think.

That's the concept bumper. So you'd have to make your own, I believe.

It appears to be a molded apsec kit.

That was the 2005 Acura RL ASPEC Concept. Those panels never made it into a production offering.

Thanks guys. I sent pics to a buddy who has 8+ years experience on body work will see if he can mod a Apec lip. If he can't them I'll go to plan B with a Mugen front lip

I can't understand why Acura never made this body kit. They would make more sales in younger crowed but oh well.

He'd also have to mod the sideskirts - note how they kind of flare out at the front and taper at the back.

Not a big problem for an experienced fabricator.

Should be simple work for most/half of body shops.
