Finally!
my guess is the previous owner had an accident, a new OEM bumper was too expensive, bought that GT Concept one, then got rid of it as soon as he could
I would just double check it over. don't mean to ruin your parade - evo's are pretty sturdy - just being realistic

ya so i was going to wait for a 2012 myself, but then i became jealous that your gf bought you one, so i went out and picked up an 08 mr for myself, im stoked to be an evo driver now!!!
I am used to a V8 where everything needs to go up depending on the mods. Usually the fuel and Ignition systems are the "make or break" points. I am not going to go crazy with this one. I would like to see mid 12s on a safe setup.
First off, thank you for your service. What branch are you? I am a Marine.
Second, congrats on the Evo. You must have a good, committed girlfriend to be as generous as to buy you an Evo, that is very cool of her.
Third, if your overall goal is mid 12's, you will be fine with stock injectors. You will need your basic first round of bolt-ons (intake, full turboback exhaust, intercooler pipes and larger fmic) and a good tune and you will have your mid 12s or better. I was suprised how easy 12's were in my Evo IX compared to other cars I have had (WRX, SRT-4, built 5.0 Mustang etc...).
