Yeah, she forgot it was lowered. Then i left for a month and she let her sister drive it and got the rear bumper scraped. So i upgraded to APR Evo 9 Front/ JDM Rear

Rear was from a local shop customer that bought everything direct from Mitsubishi.

That was fast...

Ok so now im a bit confused... if i may, why go with an 8 front? I always found the 9 front end to look better and it doesn't seem to fit into your design...

the VIII is a great bumper cover when the goofy "v" is cut out from the radiator opening. i also like how large the FMIC opening is.
if my IX didn't have those goofy snorkel looking things, it would be perfect as well. stock-for-stock i'd have to stay with the IX.
i suppose if we can cut out the "v" then i could find a way to delete my snorkels?? hm....
that white JDM rear would look HAWT on my car. if only i had $700 LOL

The snorkel looking holes are at least functional though, but yeah, a nose chopped VIII bumper looks ridiculously good.....especially with a CF lip added to it.

I was told they direct air to the IC piping, but none of my stuff is OEM, soooo.... I dunno.
