Where can I find this front bumber? Saw this online and really like it.

Opinion Alert: ;)

Don't do it.
It looks sorta nifty, but it's basically a damage multiplier if ever you bump someone.
I'd wager you could push the ends of those bars to touch the bumper with two fingers.

That was a one-off someone threw together for SEMA a couple years ago, and I'm pretty sure no one markets it, though you could certainly have someone fab one up for you. I think they just stuck a TRD sticker on it, as it was never offered by Toyota.

This.
 
I did like the TRD one as well. Personally didn't care about damage multiplier as if I have a fender bender still with or without parts will need to be replaced and that is what insurance is for. After that I have decided to go with Aussie Toyota Nudge bar which comes with additional attach points which should be able to handle light nudging. Here it is link to the thread

Glad you posted that, because I was thinking of suggesting your alternative when I posted. What you did there is in a different league IMO. Yours actually has some strength and bracing to it.

I really like it, but it sound like you have few issues to take care of it before installation. I was hoping US OEM :-)

It is Toyota OEM just sold in Australia only. No issues at all with install since everything bolts on to factory mounting points. The only thing I have done (not required) is remove the license plate bracket. That can be left on as it is a small piece of metal and it could be used for installing an led light bar. I didn't want extra lights for my mall cruiser and I am a little OCD so have removed it. No regrets and I think it looks good comparing to plain bumper.
