Gialla front bumper too much ?
I like that bumper that looks identical to the Gialla only it doesnt have those two things that cover up the IC end tanks. I forget who makes it but you might want to search and check it out.
if your car is stock I would recommend an Oem bumper. IX will be fine. why u say?
1. The Gialla bumper is atleast 2 inches lower to the ground than OEM
2. Gialla is only made in fiberglass. a lot more supceptable to cracks and so forth.
3. Getting the Gialla bumper you will have to remove the front bumper support.
4. Gialla bumper will cost u more in the end because the OEM IX bumper comes painted from factory rather then painting the Gialla which puts u over that price of the IX prepainted bumper.
just some points to address before u make your decision.

dang! thnx again everyone for being soo helpful with your opinions . i've been thinking about this all day. i still have a few questions about the 9 bumper. Does it have to be modified in any way? will i have to buy other parts (brackets etc.) with the bumper? i saw that with the Gialla i will need to remove one of the bumper supports? the shop will be doing the paint/work so that's not a problem for me.
turbevo8: i think i am going to agree with you and just get a decent set of springs until i can get a full, nice coilover set-up. can you send me the link where you got yours? thnx
i am going to do some other minor things to the exterior. Cf lip/ window tints/ CF exhaust bumper cover/ and some wheels. after that i'm done....or so i say! lol I think that with those mods the Gailla won't look too agressive. i'm also going to look into the Gailla hood. thnx for all the help. evom rocks! haha

i've been looking for a Gialla bumper but noone has it in stock. has to be shipped from japan. takes a month and a half! it's definately going to be worth it. such a rare piece. i wish someone made a cf lip for it though. pics in 2 months! haha
and i was thinking of getting the front gialla bumper aswell.....can u take more pics....front, side etc....thnx
i remember there was a buy here who was stock with gialla bumper. 45 min. of search but i can't find it anymore this is the best thing i can do

buy this gialla bumper from dave https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...ghlight=gialla
the couple hundred dollars you save buying used after getting it fixed and repainted,you can put towards springs
wouldnt look to bad as long as your lowered
