Question viper or sabre front bumper

Hey I'm having a problem finding the right front bumper.. As I have gathered, this bumper is called both the viper and the sabre. I have a 2002 Civic Si Coupe and I'm trying to find the original of this bumper. The following sites are ones I've found for both names of the bumper:

Viper:
http://www.autosportz.com/bodykits_0...ivic_viper.htm
http://www.604racing.com/aerodynamic...rontbumper.htm (its called Type-V on this site.. I'm assuming its also called the Viper. I live in Canada and this company is in BC and I got a price of $350 for it)

Sabre:
http://www.extremedimensions.com/shopexd.asp?id=1585
http://www.visionautodynamics.com/pr...ar=2002&page=1 (Goto this site and its just down the list a little bit)
Theres another site with a Sabre kit on it but I forget what it is..

If anyone can help me out, I kinda like this front bumper and it will be painted black so it won't look as agressive as the yellow one (Example on the sites).. Thanks alot!

Thanx alot CivicEX311.. I'm starting to assume that the cheaper the bumper is, the more likely it is to be a replica.. I want that front end, and if I get it I don't know how much work I'd have to do for fitting..

Theres a company in BC that I got a $350 quote from.. I'm not sure whether or not I want to get it though because theres a guy at an performance shop with a 7th gen civic and he got the buddy club kit right when it came out. He ordered his from BC and I guess it was a copy and it ended up being a pain for him to fit.. He told me it was like 2000 for the whole kit and it ended up costing 6000 for painting and fitting. So I'm still not too sure what I'd like to do!

ak can only hope to improve
Topfuel & iamboo have the Viper front. I used to have it but i sold it and bought an RS lip (simple look). We all bought it from importfan.com (picked up)

It's made of GTP fiberglass and you will have to trust me on this one.... IT IS STRONGER THAN CHEAP 7oz EBAY FIBERGLASS CRAP. AndyMan97 owns my Viper front now.

Importfan carries the original. The bumper will have GTP's original label inside... good stuff.
