FC3S Front Bumper

Okay, I'm looking for a good site to buy FC3S aftermarket body parts from. I don't really care for bodykits, but I love the front bumper on the RedSun FC3S from Initial D is really nice and I want it. Someone told me that that is the stock JDM S5 front bumper, anyone know if this is true, or what front bumper it is?

Also, will it just be a bolt on? How hard will it be to install? Thanks in advance.

Oh and on a side note, anyone know of a good site for FC3S front bumper lips? Thanks again.

speedmachineperformance.com used to make nice lips, dunno if they still do, i can't find them on there website.

I'm hijacking this thread, I'd like to replace my front bumper as well with a stock s5 bumper, will the s4 rub strips and connect with the s5 bumper so that my rub strips look the same all the way around? instead of my car being s4 and the bumper have s5 rub strips.

I agree. It looks like the group buy has expired though.

It is a stock S5 with the lip, but I always thought the GP Sport and Version Select kits look very similar.
