Looks like a factory bumper with the fog lights removed and brake ducts molded in.

Yeah, I agree. Those eliptical ducts look wrong, though nicely implemented.
Good luck in your hunt.

I kept watching that car on craigslist and trying to sell stuff to buy it. The stock frt bumper does look better and the gap at the header panel made me wonder what happened to it.

But you got a nice car at a rather good price I do believe.

That's what happens when you do a Turbo front end convertion without changing the header panel, usually just by cutting the fenders.
