I've seen this on here before. I think some one posted a pick of a silver one in front of some factory in Japan. It seems to have the intake opening like the Mugen (with the big smile) but we know it's not . Could it be Marca Hills?!?!

Yes as pointed out this is aero offerings from Japanese company called Marga-Hills. They debut the show car at the recent Tokyo Auto Salon.
Not only pretty innovative front bumper with integrated breathing holes routed to stock air filter housing is available but unique side skirt and rear bumpers with diffusers and matching dual exaust as well as unique looking big wing is also available.
The price of each part is not outrageous but still on the pretty steep side.
I believe one Japanese owner made identical intake opening using the stock bumper copied from Marga-Hills front.

Price of the front bumper, of course unpainted without shipping is seem to be around in the neighbor of $860.

Many will say this is too wild and yes it seems to be. But I am sure yonger people will take notice.

I will try to contact my Japanese friend and ask him to find out how one of the Japanese owner actually made same type of opening hole on the stock bumper, that should be very interesting to some.

Oh, sorry here is the link to the company website directed to the S2000 stuff.

http://www.marga-hills.com/s2000.html

I am sure Mr. Giampiero at MG Racing can get the stuff for you if you want so badly.

The front looks like it will do great job putting the S2000 on the ground with extra downforce but unless you are going to travel regularly over 120+, it seems like the design is over-kill but it looks very unique, pretty or ugly aside.
They also have an outrageous aero kit available to NSX brethrens.

My guess is it was a really BIG bird. Maybe an ostrich.
