fitment issues are not really a problem just do a little fine tweaking to it and its non detectable ,to the non auto body professionals that is..

I would rather invest my money on the IX bumpers from gruppe-s that are oem quality and fitment and they come prepainted.

^^ I would too, but these bumpers are so cheap that it would make me seriously reconsider if I were in the market of buying one. Looking at the pictures, does anyone know how much it would roughly take to fix them?

streetconcept posted an average price they got from autobody shops. The other thing is that theirs come unpainted, which could be bad or good. Also I believe group-s doesnt have bby or gg and the weightless white is a litte different from whicked white.

I don't think you want a bumper from StreetConcept (IMO). I bought one last month both top corners were missing and it had a few holes in it. Yes it could have been fixed but in the end you will spend about the same for a real one. Once you add in all the body work its still a Knock-off just save your money and get the real thing.

I sent mine back and got a refund. They did give me a full refund so I am happy and think they are a honest vendor. There products just don't live up to my standards!

You should look at their website... The have pictures of where the "fitment issues" are. Then you can decide how obvious the fitment issues are. Personally, I'm not one for fiberglass....

Your other options are Gruppe-S which advertises at $695. There's also couple other threads floating around on www.SOCALEVO.NET gauging interest in EVO 9 bumpers amongst other JDM pieces.
