Thumbs up NEW Front Bumper

Saw this Front bumper in the Rally S2000 thread. It appears to be an AP2 front bumper with a molded in front lip and splitter molded to the bottom of the lip.

I really want this bumper and would appreciate any info on who makes it, and where to get it. Looks like this is a European Rally series, maybe some of the Europe guys can chime in.

I think if you look closer you'll see a straight edge lip added to the bottom of the OEM style lip, similar to the European AP1 Lip that Honda use to make. I also point out that this is a Rally car, and the abuse of rally racing I imagine would break the seam or mold job used to mold ABS to Urethane. I could be wrong no doubt. I understand it looks identical to an AP2 bumper with OEM lip but there are sudtle differences that make me think this bumper was poured as a one piece mold from the git go.

yeah i agree, it looks like the vinyl graphics are giving it that molded look. And the splitter is probably just an add on piece....Molding stuff is a showy thing, i've never seen it on a competition car.

It's a racing car, not a rally car - don't confuse these two. Same company (Fugel - Honda dealer in Germany), different sort of racing.

They made a one-off I think. Plus the car has stickers on it, so it may be just the vinyl that makes it look molded, though they added sort of a lip down there no doubt.
