Japan is your best option, but it will still be difficult to find one :roll:
Now if you're interessted in a Kouki bumper, then I still have one laying around :lol:

Depends on where it's being shipped from but expect to pay around $4-600, mostly shipping charge, give me a bit, I'll get you all my different ae92 parts contacts, it's easier to find parts when you email them directly

Shipping FTL. The charges are legit, as ridiculous as they are. There are few companies that ship such large things from the motherland, and the ones that do charge a premium. Seems you'd be dollars ahead to get a front cut.

If you can find a front cut, I spent almost a year looking for one and every time I had a good lead a couple of times and the deals would always fall through or they were incomplete.

I'm only asking $150,- for my Trueno Kouki front bumper, complete with the combolights. But they are in bit of a rough shape and need some TLC.
But as said, the shipping costs are murder. Things like a bumpers don't weigh that much, but they are oversized packages and shipping them half way round the world is a costly buisiness. :(

I can know. :roll: I shipped a Trueno Zenki bumper from Canada to the Netherlands and a Kouki rear bumper from Japan. :geek:
I already had a few people willing to buy my Kouki front bumper, but the shippingcosts always made them back out of it. The bumper itself + shipping from the Netherlands to the US would easily cost up to $800,-. Can't imagine it would be much different from Japan.

But when you see those bumpers on the car, they are so worth it! 8-)

Unfortunately the best way to save money on shipping is to find a group of people renting a container, splitting the cost and then picking it up from whatever port it went to. No matter what it's expensive.

Ae 92 is very old model, so it becomes harder to get bumper for this car. You could not able to get any parts easily of this model in recent time. You can find it on internet as well because all kind of accessories and parts for old model cars are available over there.

It cost an arm and a leg to ship from Japan to Virginia. I had to search yahoo Japan just about everyday for 1 year to find mine. Soon as I found it on the auction I contacted EP Importers to bid and win it for me. The bumper with bracket and lights cost me only $150.00. Shipping it to Virginia was the killer. Cost me close to 1k to get it shipped here, so I had EP Importers also send me the rear bumper as well. Well worth it the investment as I love the look of the car. Unfortunately for me, I have to part with my AE 92 and I will not part her out. Seek my post on the classified.

i have a trueno zenki front bumper skin spare (sold the irons to a guy in australia). it owes me nz$20 but as said, shipping is a killer and im in New Zealand. (thats below australia).
also, i use Ewan from hayatonka.com (about to change names) to buy yahoo japan auction parts. he's a kiwi guy living in japan, super nice guy, great to deal with and sends container loads to countries that purchase enough parts to fill one. Containers take longer to receive parts but shipping on large items like body panels and wheels is well worth the wait!
