Default Difference between base and sport front bumper
Hey all, I have a 2009 Sport that I am in search of a front bumper cover.

Looking online at carparts.com there seems to be multiple variations of CAPA certified replacement bumpers (I am having the hardest time just finding a used one)

2009 Nissan 370Z - Bumper Cover - Front, 1 Piece, Primed, For Models Without Sport Package, Without Air Spoiler, CAPA Certified

and

2009 Nissan 370Z - Bumper Cover - Front, 1 Piece, Primed, For Models With Sport Package, With Air Spoiler, CAPA Certified

The issue is the Sport model bumper is "sold out" on every website I visit when it comes to the aftermarket CAPA certified versions (just trying to save a few hundred over an OEM front bumper)...

Can someone please elaborate what the difference is between the sport and non-sport front bumpers? I am asking because on the pictures at carparts.com there is no noticeable difference between the two. If there is a difference I would obviously like to keep the bumper matching with my trim level. Maybe someone has pictures?

Thanks
