That's a Kamei front spoiler, of course they don't make them any more.
Here's mine it's on my SA that has an FB bumper swap I just trimmed the bottom of the bumper a little to make it fit over the spoiler.

Are you going to head over to his house and steal it? He already said it's 'NFS' = Not For Sale.

I had a Kamei on the '84 -SE for awhile, but found the Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) material to be not up to the task of managing wind buffeting over time which caused stress cracks along the bottom edges, eventually causing the center section to split and fly off at speed. This was with the inclusion of a support bar beneath the center section to avoid 'flapping' at highway speeds. I went through 2 of them and then went gelcoated fiberglass and never looked back.

Good luck in finding one, as nobody as making these anymore - a fiberglass mold would give it some life, IMO.
