Hi P.Lindlom, and to everyone !
I first present, I'm Roberto from Italy. I've a Lexus IS 200 from 9 years and in all this time i've folloed LOC Forum, but this my first thred here.
Abou your purchase, for the front bumper, which a few months ago I would like buy the same, and I realized the differences between "Carson" and "Techno R" already named "TDR style."
Leaving aside the discussion of the price of crowds Carson, I noticed that the version Techno R is maked and selled by many producers, in various materials, and sometimes with some little variant style - under the fog lights.
Here are some 'links or harvest and prices are much lower Japanpart and L-Tuned:

They are seriously interested, but I do not understand what could cause a difference on the price so high.
I hope that your purchase of the bumper to be a success, are curious, and I hope that the link you provided, I can help you further.
Bye !
