Hi everyone I'm new here, I am just on a hunt these days.

I have an obsession with DSM's and there is this Konig ad that shows a 97-99 eclipse with a gorgeous aftermarket front bumper.

I am offering a reward to whoever can find out who makes this front bumper, be it money, or a material object, name your price.

I just really need some help in finding this it will complete my project. Thanks for any help you guys can be.

How are we supposed to find it when we can't even see the whole bumper...

After a bit of googling, this is the closest I have found:

If you explain more about this reward, I'll look some more.

That one is different, and a bit ugly.

Call Konig, talk to a marketing rep, and email them the picture.

I don't know what to say guys.

You guys rock, I came here b/c everyone told me that ebaumers were the best on the net.

Everyone is very very close, but that one isnt it, to the people asking about the reward, name what you want as compensatioon and i am sure i can work something out.

You know when you this close to completeing something, and there is one more thing you need, I need to find this bumper. if it helps here is a link to the guys car with a video ... and his car sponser apperas in the bottom of the screen, but its in SPANISH, lol.

Well anyways any more questions feel free to ask, i appriciate all of you being so kind and helping out.

Oh and here is everything I have tried so far .......

Progress ........................

~ Contacted Kevin at Konig - Says he'll see what he can do and get back to me, he says they archive all of there advertisements, with a listing of artist and vehicles used, but he says it may take a while.

~ Contacted Stan at Konig - No Response, but it is just Monday so I have my fingers crossed.

~ Posted My Space bulliten offering reward to anyone who finds it. Asked friends to post it as well.

~ Posted threads on DSMtuners.com, Superhonda.com, Ebaumsworld.com Tamparacing.com asking for anyone to help and offered reward as well.

~ Posted comment on my CARdomain page, asking for help, offering reward.

~ Sent out an e mail to my entire address book asking for help ( I work for a big company that is very involved in cars, so this should help)

~ Sent text message to my entire phone book, asking every to check "said" Websites

~ Sent e mails to following magazines, asking for help, telling them about my search and making sure they know that I'm am and "AVID" reader and long time loyal customer. (<---- Not really)

~ Import tuner mag, Sport compact mag, Car and Driver (<-- yeah right)
Turbo mag, Street performance mag.

~ Sent e mail to local custom body shops - Including - Automotive Engineering, Boulevard Customs, Jays Customs.

Anyways as you can see this has become my lil project, I just cant stand not being able to figure something out, I will be so relieved when this thing is found.

Oh believe me it WILL be found, I don't care if I have to have it custom made by my local fiberglass shop. When I find it I'm buying 10, lol.

Well the same goes to you guys, find it and there is a reward, we can work something out.

I'd love to know who said that. Usually people only talk shit about us.

Ebaumer's...in the car forum...sorry to say...are pretty subpar when it comes to actual indepth knowledge...except for a few of us...of course including you Spank. BUT, lately we've been moving on up with a higher-than-before intelligence quotient.

I don't know what kind of luck you're having, but I've done some work for you. First, that is not Spanish, it's Portugese. The guy's name is Leo San and he is one of the proprietors of www.etftuning.com, which is out of Brazil. I can't find information about his car on the sight itself, but I have generated a message asking him who makes the body kit and then had it translated to Portugese using Google's translator. I then sent it to the personal email address that he provides in the "forum" section on the sight. Check back to see if I get a reply from him.

Why don't you email the owner of the car and ask him?

Here's his email/MSN

I just asked your mom. She's slept with everyone, and it was in the front page of her black book.

No, but realistically, I just went to the etftuning forum, looked up that leo san guys profile, and his shit was listed there.

He has a website too, but the bandwidth was raped out of commission.

Oh ok....I didn't ever remember hearing a name or that tuning website you're talkin about, maybe I didn't look close enough.:confused:

heh yeah I knew what you were saying, the first time I read it though I thought I was reading a chinese name "Yout Lieing", I pronounced it 'Yewt Ley-ing' and got really confused for a second.

There was a video posted with the watermark for etftuning.com in the corner. The video was of the car (or an identical car) in question, and the title said it belonged to Leo San. I checked the site, there was a user named Leo San, so I checked his email, and badabing!
