For everyone out there running a JDM rear bumper, how do you guys feel about driving without a rear crash bar? Im getting a JDM rear for Christmas and I'm slightly hesitant about driving without one (as far as insurance is concerned they wont cover me being rear ended if they find out I'm not running a rear crash bar)

If you know cars and you look at the rear crash beam mount point you will see its not the frame. The bar is useless in anything over a 5mph impact. The bars do nothing for stiffening the chassis and aren't even supplied on the JDM EVO.
Do yourself a favor and stop worrying about something and will only protect your car from backing into a shopping cart.

i also have the injen ses 3" exhaust system. the quietest exhaust system ive ever heard on an evo with my test pipe. i hope this jdm bumper fits it. looked through the fitment thread n no one had this exhaust with the 9 bumper.
