Default Bumper cover for FMIC??

Anyone know where to get that bumper cover that was shown on the Texas Rear Turbo website before they went out of business? It's made to allow maximum air flow to the FMIC.. I wish I had saved a picture of it.. It looks like the normal TA bumper cover, except no fog lights and it has a single vertical piece in the very middle, two rounded squares on each side exposing the FMIC. If any of you know what I'm talking about speak up please..

I have to agree there. I did some more looking around, there's another bumper cover made by a company called duraflex, but it also looks crappy IMO.

It is hideous IMO. I plan on doing a FMIC soon to ditch the twin ATI IC's, but I just plan on cutting out the tag behind and getting the vanity cover modified so it looks tasteful but also allows air to the IC. Won't be for a few months but it'll be a whole lot better than that thing and look good, I hope.
