Evo 9 bumper, importing one from Japan!

Just found out how much the Evo 9 rear bumper cost in Japan, not bad at all. After bugging the crap out of my friend who lives there he finally made that call to the dealership I just need to find out how much it will cost to ship it to Taiwan. Ill let you guys know how it fits if I do get it before some of you in the US.

if you ship by air, it will cost about 2 x the cost of the bumper to get it to the US...that's why ours are coming by boat

No way I'll pay that much...

I'm getting the EUDM bumper from Neodesign probably.

They just sent me a pic of their prototype install on their car, and it looks sweet.

that looks pretty good, but the photoshop one looks a bit better. I think its the CF trunk that makes it look weird. How much is it?

If you're interested, get in on the bumper group buy in my sig. If we get 5 more people (for a total of 20) we're looking at $650, + approx $50-75 shipping to your door, all inclusive. As it stands (we have 15 now) the price is $699 + shipping. The group buy is open till wed, so if you want in, get on it!

Also, Gruppe-S is the one taking care of the GB.

That rear bumper on the red evo looks real nice, I'd take the sideskirts too. Did they say if they would be adjusting the license plate area to fit US sized ones? Also are they working on a front bumper to compliment the sideskirts and rear?

The rear bumper + sideskirts are HOT. Keep us updated on this, please? I hope this prototype hits the market as a kit. I like that bumper over the Evo IX JDM bumper, mainly since the diffuser serves no purpose and has been proven to be purely cosmetic.

+1 on the bumper on the red EVO
