OEM JDM IX Rear bumper. Do they exist anymore??

Does anyone know of any places that still sell factory OEM JDM IX rear bumpers??

All I see is replica's or unpainted. The only shop I thought still sold them, hasn't responded to my emails.

Any help would be welcome.

It would be cool if some shop just made a USDM bumper but with the JDM diffuser so you don't need to modify your crash beam.

They stopped making them so you wouldn't buy one cause they were told you were trying to get back into the scene.....

Who tipped them off is something we may never know....muhah muhah muhahahahaha..
