Personally I think getting an OEM one is the best choice.You still have to pay to get these ones painted and fitted and Ive heard that many of the aftermarket EVO IX JDM rear bumpers have some fitment issues.Just save and get a real one.

I'd still opt for the JDM OEM equipment if I were you, based on the success members have had on fit alone.

did you contact him about the bumper? maybe he will say "i personally test fitted it and its really great" or " it needs some work to get it to fit right"- something to give you some confidence

Yeah, just talk to him about it, ask the tolerances used, and the weight of it too!

$250+$175+$5 = $430. IMO, I'd spend the extra hundred or so and get the real one. I did and guess what? Perfect fit.

ok all of you that keep saying get the one that matches your car... ummm the paint shade will be different so you're best off buying a primered JDM rear... and just getting it painted

^I think most vendors and shops only carry JDM EVO IX OEM rear bumpers pre-painted from the factory.

they look pretty nice from the pics. I've bought front and rear lips from him for my civic not too long ago. Fitment was perfect without any modifications. I wonder how this bumper fits.
