Just get a Evo IX front bumper and replace the VIII bumper.

It'll look like crap if you cut out the nose from the VIII.

I personally think it looks amazing

it's a good 4-6 hours in labor and definitely not the easiest job from what I've heard

cost depends on the quality of the shop

Cut the nose. The 9 bumper used to appeal to me but now I like the 8 more.

That white one with the black lip looks great. All of them need the emblem or something to fill up that opening a bit though. It looks like there should be something there.

Can you just put the mesh and emblem from a IX in the opening? If so, I'd dare say you'd have a nicer front end than the stock IX.
