Nope, Mikey's had that bumper molded for quite some time. I sold him a brand spankin new SVT bumper just last year(or was it this year?). Why one would chop an SVT bumper as opposed to an SE is beyond me. The top half of both bumpers are identical.

I really like the look of some of the audi a4 front bumpers available to them. Wonder how some of them would look on an svt. I think the M3 bumper looks ok, but somehow its a little to 'sharp' to fit with the rest of the car. maybe something like this: Audi front audi frontThough looking at the front of my dads A4 and my Svt, the dimensions are a bit off....

The AAS bumper is similar enough to that. It think it's modeled of an RS4 front

Thats true, I guess that kit just slipped my mind. Though at some angles that kit just seems too big, like it could have been a bit smaller...

the top halves are identical however the sides are not. i need the sides of the svt bumper to line up with the lines from the fender.  duh!
