Found this strange thing on Yahoo Auctions Japan. Does anyone recognize it?

Hm it looks like an odd combo of the mugen and the ings. I actually kinda like it.

And you know it's JDM when it's being displayed on a roll-out tatami mat.

Manga_Spawn

Oh absolutely. Where is feezy when you need him?

It's the original ASM bumper I believe. It was the bumper they made before the ASM bumpers that we are all used to.

Shipping on a bumper is outrageously expensive. My shipping bill was a bit over $1,100 when I had mine overnighted. That's the only way they ship things on BIDJDM from what I have been able to tell.

If it is what you say it is, it seems like the shipping cost would be worth it considering the rarity of the piece. I think it would look pretty great on the right car.

Gotuning would know better than I would, but I'm pretty sure I am right.

If I remember correctly that is the bumper that the ASM race cars ran after they ditched the Mugen aero. The next generation after that is the IS bumpers that we all know and love.

I am trying to find some more examples for you. I know I have a bunch of them at home, but I'm at the office right now. If I remember I'll dig them up for you.

Awesome, thanks Feezy.

Sounds like a priceless front bumper. Almost looks to have never been installed but damn those front license plate holes.
