C-west front vs. EVO IX front
bodykits on an evo (80% of the time) are overdone... because these cars come with factory oem kits that already look aftermarket... adding anything bigger or more edgy would throw off the flow of the car thus giving wut most ppl here call the "ricer" look... however... i never thought of the c-west kit to be that... its almost the same length and width as the oem bumper so therefor its not to extreme in dimensions... it does however sit about 1-1.5" lower than the factory bumper... the lowered flat surface would create more downforce... exceptionally bigger area for intercooler/oil cooling, and a functional scoop that directs air straight to the filter... IMO i do not think the cwest kit is "rice" nor overdone. It is also not a fact that u would have to adjust ur IC piping in order for it to fit... Having had both on my car... the clearance is no different from a oem bumper with aftermarket lip... ur car ur choice...

im gonna revive this because i can!
the kit that you bought is that real cwest? if so why do they come green? i thought high quality japanese body parts come with a different finish? if so then what company/brand are those. if so then where did you bought it at? and for how much? plus any recent pics of it?
It is a black color that they come in. Is that C-West or is it a rep??
I just read some the following comments and Wow! Not impressed at all with some posts about the stock bumpers.
When it comes down to aesthetics, it's all your choice and preference. Go with whatever you like best.

its the AIT Racing CW body kit if you must know. all there parts come primed green. its crappy primer and kits come in rough so you will have to do some major prep work to get it paintable but once its done its comes out clean of course. i have same kit. I have a brand new ait cw rear still in plastic if you like the rear. I ended up getting a real jdm rear
maan EVOM is great. haha i can find anything i need on here

can we get some pics? hows the fitment on the ait? its just straight forward? any trimming? i know you gotta drill the holes for sure. can we still retain the bumper retainer and brackets or do you have to use new ones?
