Version Select Front Bumper

Has anyone noticed that the Version Select front bumper for the Evo is almost exactly like the Gialla front bumper without the middle air ducts? I mean exactly alike.

that depends on what you mean by bs... if you mean that they make their own designs... then i'd say that's about 60% bs.

if you mean that they're made out of teh same stuff the oem is made out of that's about 100% bs.

if you mean that they fit perfectly, read the disclaimer.

in the end.... just about all body kit manufacturers operate under the same pretexts... only the true jdm ones are top notch. the others are still just good imitations at best and real pieces of garbage at worst.

that said it looks like version select is on the more decent side.

Very true. I meant that they are a Japanese company and they use FRP. Cool thing is that the Gialla CF Vents can still be used on the VS front bumper.

frp is just fiberglass... they're just sayin' they make it carefully... which everyone tries to claim. but what's a bit reassuring is that they are pretty low volume... so maybe they make it in house and carefully.

The Gialla reminds be of the 9 slightly, because of the holes.
