They put a C-West EVO VII front bumper and hood on their project car. The aftermarket bumper was made for the JDM spec EVO VII. They had to do some modifications to get it to fit, same modifications to get the EVO VII OEM bumper to fit on a USDM EVO VIII.

Hope this helps.

Forgot to mention. If you are going to put the EVO VII front bumper on the USDM EVO VIII you will have to change the hood as well.

It works and i've done it to my evo8. Only thing you hvae to remove is the 5mph bumper support to fit the bumper. so you decide. Also you need evo7 hood. evo8 hood is too long.
