I personally happen to like the bumper. Option thought it was nice enough to put the Defend S2000 on the cover of Option 2 magazine a couple of years back.

I really like their kit for the S2000. It fits the car's lines really well and is the only rear bumper I like other than the ings+1. They also build very nice track vehicles.

To answer the original question though, Garage Defend isn't a huge company and not many companies in the U.S. have access to it.

I agree, that if you're boosting, it's a great bumper, but without that intercooler, it just doesn't do it for me...

I actually think this one looks good with or without an intercooler up front because the main opening in the front is kinda deep and not too big.
