Who makes this bumper?
I got this picture of Acosta Racing's red RX8. Greddy's RX8 also has the same bumper. So who makes this, and where can i get one?

I'm guessing it's for the air intake.

well yes, i do hope it fits well when they do it.
What i was curious to was when one of us buys it, how well will it fit and how much body work will need to be done.

I love the idea of getting that much air straight to the intake... hmm???
