The "clips" that hold the brackets/reinforcements to the lip are just rivets. The rest should be the same as the undertray. Which are below. I do not have a photo of the rivets right now.

Just out of sick curiosity, could you post an item by item price list for the conversion?

As always, you are the best.

Cheers!

If you want you can enter the numbers on our site and it will give you prices. I dont want to list all the prices out here and the prices change in a week. Not typically, but it does happen. The price of the IX Bumper dropped about $100 a few weeks ago.

I had a fender bender and the front bumper got damaged some. The guy at the body shop decided he was going to throw it away. So i have NOTHING from the front bumper AT ALL. Is there anything i would need to add to this list to build a completely new Evo IX bumper with all the SE stuff? Thanks, Trever

It should be most of it, but I would hate to tell you yes and it not be. I cant see what kind of damage is on the car so I cant commit to that. You would want to get an estimate wrote up by a body shop to make sure you purchased all the necessary parts.
