Thats the INGs front bumper. Another one I really like would be the Modellista front end

http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3613

Usually for body kits you can buy the whole kit which will normally consist of a new bumper, side skirts and rear however you can just buy the bumper too

You should really resize those pics cause its hard to see on the forum. Looking at all those spider cracks tho it can't be pretty.

There should be a bodykit thread on this forum just search for it to give you some ideas.

Here the thread I just found it.

Honestly I would love to get a small cell jammer that I could turn on to get people to put their phones down...I think they are illegal in Canada though

Lol that wouldn't help at all as it would then cause a panic attack. They would just fiddle with their phones some more trying to figure out what's wrong with it. XD

Very lucky that none of the damage ended up on any metal parts from what I can see! I would opt for just a repaint of the entire bumper, forget blending the paint in, it'd cost too much and will still look decent. won't cost you more then a couple hundred.

Yes I do like the INGs bumper because it looks amazing. I was also thinking about the GReddy body kit, but it looks expensive. lol http://greddy.com/products/jdm-speci...er/frs-brz-86/

Yes, I know right. I have a friend who said someone who can fix it for $600 because the paint, but that was just a estimate.
