try ordering from an established vendor. I personally wouldn't care if it was a replica or not. As long as the quality is there.

theres probably a mitsubishi logo or factory markings somewhere on the bumper. also the diffuser comes in a dark greyish color which is just the exposed material.

Look on Body-kit.com which is Accolade.... there's might be a replica (im nogt sure) but they have awesome product quality at a good price. My buddy has it and it looks real!

Edit.... A Replica will cost an average of 300ish (arm and leg) and a real jdm will cost more like 850ish (left nut).... jk but seriously they are not cheap for real ones unless someone totalled there car and stripped it

Driveline.com has the real deal painted and shipped for $755 I think that is about as good as you'll fine.

I like the look of the JDM bumper but I don't know about not having the red lit up reflectors on the side. What do you guys do with those?

06GraphiteEvoIX

the JDM does look sick but i also like the factory reflectors that light up... most people just unplug them and leave them but i hear putting the jdm bumper on is kind of a pain cuase the crash gaurd and things! I hear it is worth it though

Got mine from Driveline recently. Comes packaged in Mitsu bubble wrap with the typical OEM part number stickers on the bumper, accessory bag (rivets), and the tow hook cover.
