Aftermarket front bumpers/bodykits?

Before I get flamed, I DID search, and read every single thread on this forum about bodykits for the new G. Basically, there are some kits out (Tommy Kaira, Kenstyle) but I don't know where I can buy these kits and in addition, they are way too expensive (10.5k for the kenstyle?? )

I am in dire need of a front bumper because I rear-ended a PoS (Sport brakes finally failed me!).. I like the Tommy Kaira one, are replicas being made of any of these? The kit I'd really like to have is the Nismo concept, but I think it's just that, a concept right? Are there any other front kits out there for this car?

Anyone have any suggestions? I have about a week to get a new bumper (I'm embarrassed driving around in a busted up G that attracts as much attention as mine)

I'm definitely willing to do a good amount of legwork and research both for myself and for the community, but I'd like to know if anyone's gone this path, or if anyone can point me in the right direction.

Thanks,

DOMO

japanparts is probably the only place i know that sells any exterior items for the new G

unfortunately, it's going to take more than 1 week for you to get anything... (unless, of course, if you pay something ridiculous for express)

more kits will come up, i'm sure...
replicas/knockoffs will probably shore up in many many months later,

Thanks.. Japanparts is way too expensive for kits that don't even include bumpers. "front spoilers" and "lips" are obviously not what I need...I'm realizing that I might have to just go ahead and get a stock bumper again.

And I meant I want to get things figured out in a week, I'm willing to wait longer for a good solution.

Klumzyee:

I have nothing for the Sedans yet.. I'm not too sure if I'm going to make a new bumper for the sedans (alot of work / fitting) I might come out with a new lip tho.

i think OP is looking for actual bumper and not 'spoiler' kits like the kenstyle stuff (which i think looks awesome),

BUT, it does seem like they sell the Impul kits, which looks like they do have whole bumper (not as sexy as kenstyle, IMO)
