    As above it seems like a modified stock one.
    Though personally I think it looks horrendously stupid.
    if you want something a bit less common, go for the Version R front bar.

    It looks like a facelift that's been chopped down low amd widened on the sides a bit. The fenders are slightly flared.

    Whatever you do.... don't just buy filler and try to fill in the indicator holes. Do it properly with fibreglass.

    I have seen one cut out like that before. IMO it didn't quite look right.

    Found one, but not the one I saw before.
