JDM Rear and then get some springs to lower the ride. I regret my decision to get coils for a DD. I would have been better off with springs and the extra cash in my pocket.

If only driving once a week....hell JDM Rear takes my vote. Coils are not necessary in your situation and for a couple hundred bucks, springs will net you (for the most part) the same look.

GL & hope you have a great Merry XMAS!!

I think I'm gonna get the JDM rear and get coilovers soon after. I would get springs but I'd like to swap out the bilsteins so I can have the car corner balanced.

That's pretty cheap. I know it's not a genuine Mitsubishi bumper but still

I rather not get a replica. If anything I would love to get a JDM evo 7 rear bumper just since it's something different and it doesn't stick out as much as the usdm rear.

Well I guess STM can still get the genuine bumpers. Unpainted and you still have to source the tow hook cover.

You are correct.
We can get the tow hook covers too - special order just like the bumpers



Feel free to call or PM us any time or if you have any questions on the bumper cover.
I'm sure we can do a combo deal with the lightweight crash beam so you don't have to run without a rear beam.

Luckily i got my coils first because i smacked my bumper into a wall :/ haha. got a JDM rear around 1000 shipped. Stance coils set me back around 1200 so around the same price and im happy with them. I'd say coils but if everyone is saying jdm rear is getting harder to come by that might be a good idea.

A lot of them have fitting issues. Just getting it to fit will drive up the labor cost. Better to just go with OEM
