they are the 9 headlights and the rear bumpers are the same on the 8 and 9

someone just jacked the seats thats all I know that the kid at my dealership that works on the evos anytime they get a trade in he takes all the aftermarket parts off the car and puts stock ones on to sell the car better and they let him keep everything he gets.

Here's what the eBay seller said when I asked him what was up with all the Evo 8 parts on an Evo 9:

"We are not sure this is how we got the vehicle. thanks "

But hey, all you have to know is the hood has some chips in it, and that's what's important...

for future reference from 2001 and newer the 10 digit represents the year of the car. it will change to letters in 2010.

I'll bet this guy picked it up at an insurance auction as a theft recovery and then got all the other parts out of a salvage yard. Haha. It just would have been better if he would have known what he was talking about. Lol.

If you open the picture with the cone filter, and maximize it, you can see the boost solenoid. Funny thing is, only one line is connected. Must have a boost controller. This thing has been ridden hard and put away wet.
