It isn't in stock - the website is wrong, I called.

Anyone selling a used OEM let me know. Willing to pay premium.

Don't worry, you'll pay a premium. $500 was the price when they were last available a couple of years ago. Near consensus here seems to get one of the reproductions and appropriate gasket and spend several hours fitting it to your front bumper. These seem to be available on OE colors on Ebay.

But your front bumper is likely a stone magnet like mine was so before fitting the lower spoiler you'll need to get that refinished/repainted to the tune of several hundred dollars. Matching the paint color on the three sections of the car (hood/fenders, bumper, spoiler) can be difficult and beyond the skills of the typical DIY install (well beyond mine!). Top grade body shop had my S2000 for a week refinishing the front bumper fitting the new OEM lower spoiler. Only color they had to fool with was the bumper, the hood/fenders and OE spoiler colors matched.

BaysonR makes a fantastic replica - and while I'm not one to support replica products, it's just a plastic piece on the front of your car that will get littered with rock chips and scrap on driveways if you're low.

90% of the time they're sold out, just checked now and they seem to have stock.

I work for Honda - just because there are stock numbers doesn't mean the part is available. The OEM accessories for the S2000 were discontinued a long, long time ago.
