Yeah I got one, but it's in crap condition so i'm looking for a good one!
Last one I saw on eBay went for $610 with a lip spoiler.

That sucks would have been worth bidding a fair bit extra than that $30 if it was already painted and just a bolt on job.
What about an aftermarket bar like XR venom style? |

Iv got a mate that works at ford in spare parts, just for the XR front bumper is $750 new and for a full conversion ie: lights, indercators, bumper is $1680. U pay more for the lights than u do for the bumper.
