Default GTR style front bumper

So I've seen this picture around and finally asked the guys over at 370ztuner.com if it is or will be available. Their response is below but basically no one has stepped up to produce it. Are there any Vendors on here that might want to produce this or a replica? Anyone have any suggestions on how to get this thing produced? Its the only front bumper I've seen that I really liked.

Response from Simon @ 370ztuner.com
"This GTR styled front bumper was just a one off for this car. Ive urged several manufacturers to make this for the 370Z as they did with the 350z but no one has responded yet. It may happen in the future but as of right now there wont be anything anytime soon."

There is a reason nobody is making it.

Who wants to make their Z look like the cheaper eclipse anyways?

yeah the 370z is exclusive to its own design.. Taking a trademark piece from the GT-R is not what the spirit of the Z represents. I think it looks good but its for the Gt-R

Oh no! I thought you were going to drop the 3.8 in your Z and make it AWD

Wow, I have to say I'm surprised at all of the negative responses. They kind of make me want it more. I'm not a big fan of having the same look as everyone else which is part of my reason for picking the Z in the first place. I've seen less than 10 Z's on the road in Colorado vs hundreds of mustangs, camaros and STI's. Oh well, to each their own I guess.

Quite a few people here enjoy the looks of the Porsche ripoff Zele kit. Just saying. :P
