Go to the group buy section, Coastal Metals has one people seem to like (mines on order).

A few slots on the GB are left last time I checked.

Are you talking about the underside of the front bumper lip where you might drive it up against a parking block? Or are you talking about protecting the whole front bumper (nose) of the car against rock chips and bugs?

Ah! Then what Destiny said. Coastal Metals (axcilla) has 2 products. 1 protects the undereside of the front lip and the other is similar but extends out a bit more to form a kind of splitter. The "splitter" is the one I have.

I just fitted the splitter on mine this week and it is great.

Not only does it do the job of protecting the front end from parking kerbs etc (which I have hit numerous times before this purchase) but it sticks out further than the bumper protector to stop stones, pebbles from hitting the open part leading to the radiator.

I believe there is a group buy on both products but contact axcilla to get more in depth knowledge.
