Default V2 Style Front Bumper?

I really want to get a V2 Style front bumper but, it must be made with a material which is flexible and fit like factory. Needs to be readily available and priced below $500.00. Any constructive input that helps me find such a thing would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Gary

Yes I would agree with you but, the original Nismo is fragile, will not work for me.

Thanks for the offer, do you have a link to the specific GB? Hope it's not the one where a bunch of people are waiting for a long time.

Its the ABS GB. If I am correct the original bumper in FG is being delayed and those people are being transfered to the ABS plastic GB that is supposed to come through sometime in January. The ABS GB is the one I am in on. I believe everything is still good for the expected January date. Let me know if you are interested.

the shine auto is incredible. its really flexible and fits like a glove. i just got mine last week and its on its way to the shop. it may be a bit more than some of these fiberglass ones but its worth it. go to ebay and search for them or buy the one in the classifieds. i think he wants 400 but not sure where he is at. shine is in cali so shipping is cheaper. i paid 500 shipped after haggleling with the guy from shine. better to deal with them direct.

Thanks for the info, I think that's what I'm going to get. You don't think it's too flexible do you? I want it to have some give but not cave in when going 100+ mph on the track.
