If you stick with the VIII front and cut out the centerpiece that holds the Mitsubishi emblem, it looks really good. A lot of people on here have done it, and it'll be your cheapest mod.

imports in general are considered rice so stop all bs cause i keep it clean its not rice please. if you ask any true muscle car owner about imports in general its all rice to them. Get your facts right before you hate and say your car is not rice cause its stock appearing. A bumper is just that a bumper you can change it at anytime you want. Frankly getting the opinions of others online where some rock stock and some rock body kits is a waste of time. Its your car mod it your way. the only way your going to be different and stand out is the little things . if you put a kit on and it looks bad it looks bad change it out or keep it. Everybodies taste buds are different. Make your own opinion and go with it.

I've had both. I went from OEM w/ Chargespeed CF Lip to CWEST with Voltex canards, and now back to the OEM w/ Chargespeed CF Lip - but has no license plate wholes now so minus the ugly front plate

OEM w/ Chargespeed: Nice balance between mean and agressive - definitely a lot more approachable and cleaner look

CWEST w/ Voltex canards: The ONLY way I'd rock a CWEST was if it has the canards. Though the Voltex canards retails for $1,000 :/ Yikes. It was nice while I had it, tons of looks and compliments - however it also had negative comments as well because it's wayyy too aggressive.

Decison? Up to you: I don't think you can go wrong. I love both but I'm glad I switched back to my CS lip/ 9 front combo just because it matches my CS sideskirts

I agree with Alvin, only way to do c-west is to rock it with the Voltex Canards! which is mad expensive.

Go with the IX bumper in front and Jdm in the rear!

I really like the IX bumper more, but you can always add the canards .

If you're taking the cwest kit off and putting a jdm rear bumper on I would go with the IX front, otherwise if you keep the cwest stuff on then go with the cwest front. It looks weird sometimes if you mix and match so I would say either go full cwest body style or full oem body style.

depends on what you're goung to use it for. are you goung to track it or for looks? if you need a little downforce then go with the Cwest but IMHO i'll go with the Evo 9 front bumber with ralliart carbon fiber lip and JDM EVO 9 rear. i think it's a lot nicer and more simple and clean
