like that one? if so, it was the origanal, i ripped it off the car since i got it, but its just a big sheet of plastic cut to match the front bumpers angle, then hinged up with them screw thingys, i dont know what they are called, and bolted fast to the the rad support on the underside. simple mod you can do yourself cheap...
the only other thing i could think you may mean is a mach one lip??? is that gtz of yours a q4 or v6?

yeah that's called a 'splitter' i think. someone did one as a project i remember years back, and i thought it was cool. you can buy a piece of aluminum and basically cut it to match the bumpers edge, and then add your own hardware

that white one is penfolds gtz, so thats the splitter your talking about then if thats what your looking for.... it was never carbon fiber, was just a sheet of plastic painted black. looked pretty good from 40ft at night, but it was the first thing i ripped off the car, then i ripped the "forced air intake mod" off and the 4ft of dryer tubing that went with it...

I used some stuff referred to as Garage door moulding. It's meant to line the bottom of garage doors and cover the slats.
I did it back when I drove a Honda. It looked nice, cost less than $30 (CAD) and was flexible and helped protect my front bumper from scraping on every curb or speed bump.
