I do believe when these bumpers became available to the US it was stated that the JDM 9 WW Bumpers color is off. I hear people saying it's not that bad......well after seeing this one it's enough for me to make me go get it painted to the rest of the car......Someone also stated that it's a weightless white not wicked white witch has a different..don't know the truth behind that but I'm sure it's true.
wow all of you are very smart
the jdm rear only comes in weightless white
if you have WICKED WHITE
there will be a difference and when you ordered you should have realized that, all you have to do is get it painted at a shop easy job but next time read before you order

Who feels like an idiot now, smart guy!!!!!!
ok guys an update :
well when i pick the bumper it looks like a genuine jdm bumper all the tags, the bag of hardware and the lip lock bag for the toe hook cover. all good but a closer look at the bumper it had a little metallic in it???!!!
Hans the guy who i pick up the bumper from said that in japan it comes with alittle metallic in it, that it not that noticable on the evo 9 mr. but putting it side to side with my car it looks like it will match color wise offcourse a close examination you can tell the differance (but my car was very dirty so when i install the bumper tomorrow ill send you pixs for comparison.
Conclusion:
i assume that it came this way in japan all the hadware was sealed and everything look legit. so my main concern would be fitment issue, then the color. i guess having it painted is alot better then modding it to fit the car........ but getting both would be better! so i am going to install tomorrow and post up pix for comparision

Mine was completely legit just like you said evo ippo. Had all packaging and everything. James even showed me the boxes he got them in: authentic JDM. However, they kinda come with a pearl/metallic flake in the paint.
if i didnt know that your car was wicked white, i would think it was painted weightless white
