so i went to japanparts.com

wanted to buy the jdm bumper + grille

((rounded))

cost of grille+bumper was like 400

then shipping was 700 dollars?!

so is that 400 + 700 ? ? ? ?

if so ... does anyone want to sell me JUST a ralliart grille so i dont have to ship it from japan? haha

If you have a question about shipping charges, contact the vendor. As for the JDM grill, check ebay.

There is only one Lancer I know of on the forums here that have that JDM front bumper. Not sure of anywhere else that would actually have those available...


Good luck !

I might have misunderstood, but if you are asking about saving the cost of shipping the grille, that is NOT where most of the shipping cost is coming from. I just had mine delivered to my door with the fastest possible shipping for about 160.

As for other ways to ship this thing, it is a little hard to navigate their estimate process, but there is an option to save money and have you go pick it up at a local airport or greyhound office or something like that. I cannot remember what the exact options were. I hope I helped, and didn't misunderstand. Good luck.

Dude... it's the bumper that costs the most to ship. You're looking at a large object that is probably packed into an even bigger box. I know that for a fact, because when I got mine it was in this huge box and it was well packed from the Mitsu factory.

If you want to save on shipping... why don't you swim across the Pacific Ocean and swim that sh*t back here.

I mentioned this before... if you really want the JDM Ralliart Cedia bumper, you're gonna have to pay up.

It does... but not a lot of people can afford the shipping. The bumper itself is kinda expensive.

Actually when you really think about it... IT's JDM... and Great Quality. Factory Quality.

Plus it comes Painted. Sweet!

it'll run you about the same money buying it, getting it shipped and then having it professionally painted from a local shop.
