I want one, but I really don't think its worth the money. I'd rather buy Takata Harnesses than the bumper, this is why I will be asking my g/f to purchase it for my birthday .

Spoke to one of our vendors here yesterday about that. There're working on something for us. He said we'd need five and hasn't confirmed a price yet. Obviously, the more we get the better the price is going to be.

I also PM'ed 4 vendors on here about doing a group buy and they all tried there best to come up with something, but the pricing just wasn't much lower, if at all. M1Auto was willing to do a pretty good group buy on the replica JDM rears if you guys were interested????

man prices have gone up. why group buy a replica thats stupid considering you can get one for 425 shipped they would have to beat that and does not garantee fitment or the holes in the top of the bumper to be perfectly aliged to the rear trunk. if 425 is too much for you then you dont need to be modifiying your evo at all. Majority of parts are in the upper 450 + range now and days. Body parts spoilers hoods trunks doors engine mods turbo pipping intercoolers etc. only little things are cheaper. mbc intakes filters gauges etc. Ill pass on the replica for the real deal.

I dont get some of you people at all. You will buy a new turbo for 1799+ or a intercooler for 450+ or bov valves for 230+ or have port work done or a buy anew clutch for 1695+ yet you complain or will not spend 700 more on a bumper or just pick up on a good deal in the for sale threads. I have seen three jdm rears for sale in the past two days on the for sale threads. one for 330 +shipping + trade of oem WW, one red local pick up only its on ebay and another white one for 500+shipping.

everyone is entitled to their own on what they want to spend. so i guess to each his/her own.

Some people dont have 1. A WW Evo - thus there is no point to buying that used JDM rear if you have to paint it... 2. A RR Evo and dont live in the Boston area to pick it up...

Some people prefer to spend there money on more performance enhancement parts/services rather than appearance, those parts and services are enhancing the cars performance, thats why some people dont mind shelling out the extra dough for it. Everyone has their preferences. And the replica ideal was just a "feeler" to see if there was any interest and the price was drastically lower than $425.

Edit: never mind about the part number. I guess dealers can't even get JDM part numbers. I'll keep looking around.

I need one since my stocker is all hacked up. I need WW

EB JDM bumpers seem to be hard to find used.
