Default Anyone know what bumper this is?

First aftermarket I've seen that I'd consider putting on, but haven't been able to figure out which model it is.

Looks like a modified oem bumper a member in here made in his garage, so one-op. As for the grille not being original... LoL

And judging by the horrible color match, it too looks like an Aristo front end conversion.

No, the grille in the bumper. That silver car has an insert that covers the opening and changes the shape of the fog lamps. I don't know who makes it.

if you cut out the grill slats and molded the insert and a tte lip it would look sweet

no, i meant it looks like someone CUT the middle of the L-sportline bumper (or even a WISE sport bumper) out and grafted it onto a OEM bumper (which kind of makes sense as to where there is a ravine in the middle where the "insert" is. if they had smoothed out the middle it would look so much better IMHO

OP can you post the link and we can ask the OP?

It is very similar to the L-Sportline, but not quite. There is one major difference.

I was wondering if maybe it's a Kazz product due to the foglight cover portion.

yeah i dunno we are all doing a lot of guessing thats why i wanted to contact the OP directly. i dont think its a cover like the kazz fog covers though (which i have and love) even though you can see the light through the end of them
