Try the new J-sports one. It's only $900 with shipping. :( You could garantee that you would be the only person to own one at that price.

Seriously. La-Performance makes a kamie front air dam in plastic and carbon fiber but you need to buy the bumper that goes with it. Those are the only ones that I can remember. :)

No, I don't believe you need the LAP bumper to use the LAP airdam. I own both in Carbon Fiber and I can tell you that the airdam will mount to the stock steel bumper of my 72 Super. In fact, I am going to keep the steel bumpers all around and trim them so I can use the carbon fiber ones as caps in order to maintain some sort of protection as well as a mounting point for the airdam.

Beware that it is expensive not just to buy but to ship. Unless you're determined to get the carbon fiber one, look for a used one at a VW show or ebay or the Samba classifides.
