IMC
Looks like IMC body kit. For that price, I assume its a copy or Knock Off. People have been talking about the quality issue with the knock off and if you ask Manaray and others they willl say "NO" to them. But I did heard people have good experience with some of the knock off kit like the explosion kit available on the Ebay. Anyways, I think its a nice kit. Here is one of the picture I downloaded a while ago.

that front looks like it sticks out alot farther than stock, maybe its just the pic? anyway, its a pretty nice looking kit.I think it could use some sort of low key mesh though to disguise all the radiator parts and frame etc.

That's a copy kit of IMC.........My friend has those and my shop put that on for him........It doesn't fit well and needs a lot of body work.......And it's pretty low, so even though ur car is not lower u might still scratch the kit. My friend got the whole 8 pieces kit for $1350.

GSTRANCE, that is how the IMC body kit looks like. Yes, the front end is extended compare to the stock and other body kit. sure looks nice though.

the real IMC kit fits pretty nicely. nothing out of the ordinary, except the way the sideskirts are designed, as they stick out in a stepped way

My friend was about to go for the real IMC but 1) He had to wait at least two months 2) Everything plus shipping will cost him around $4000!!!! So he went for the copy.....It still look nice but just have some fitment problems.

yeah, aerogear is ALL knock-offs...like others have said, the IMC kit is very low...the rear bumper wraps around the exhaust (the exhaust fit through openings in the bumper) so you can nick it going up steep driveways and such pretty easily....

Steve Ganz might be able to get you a better price on the IMC kit...but it's not going to be $1350 or whatever...that's for sure...but then again, it's not a cheaply made, ill fitting, knock-off...

in my opinion just adding a front bumper would make the car look awkward!! you need skirts AT LEAST to give the car an even look. my suggestion is that if you only want a front bumper then just add a front lip spoiler. it attaches straight to your factory bumper and gives a great look. you can get them from greddy and tte. if you look in the archives i'm sure it will show up. many memebers have them. i like the tte better than the greddy but it's your choice. good luck
