Default What is this Front Bumper?

I was wondering if anyone around here might now exactly what this front bumper is called or where i might be able to find it. It seems to look a little like the rieger infinity front bumper but i don't think it is.

Looks like a normal M3 bumper with the DTM lip and the mesh/grille removed.

I was thinking that too. I just wasn't certain because i saw that in the centre of the bumper seems to have more of an oval shape than a rectangular shape.

No, it's not OEM.

The shape of the opening in the middle is narrower at the top and the brake ducts are larger and angled. Plus, there's no moldings.

I think it's an esquiss bumper.
That car was the car of the month for bimmerforums I think.
I think the car has a full esquiss bodykit.

Hm. I guess I should enlarge the attachments before I speak. Doesn't have the bumper moulding either, I notice.
