as would everybody, but alot of people cant justify spending 750+ on one. 300+ paint and apparently a reputstion for quality fit and finish sounds pretty appealing if you ask me

me and two friends have the exact one off ebay, all fit excellent, it beats spendind hundreds more on a real one but if this one gets damaged you can use the money you save to buy another one, so its a win win deal, go for it bro.

I believe this one is made from the mold of an authentic jdm rear.

I have it on my car. Fit fine no problems. Looking back though I probably would have just bought one of the pre painted OE JDM bumpers. After a good paint job on the cheap on it really ends up being about the same price.

What worries me is that so many vendors use that same pic of that yellow Evo so its hard to determine what their product really looks like. Has anyone bought a rear bumper from Duraflex?

I've got a buddy locally that has one. It actually is pretty decent. The fit is a little off and he had to do some adjustment...but side by side with my car, you can barely tell the difference.

I explored the BaysonR option when shopping for mine, but in the end it was only about a $120 difference between the two (after painting). Also, the OEM bumper offers a pretty much guaranteed perfect paintjob and fitment. Plus you wouldn't need to worry about paint codes and a possible mis-match. Not saying you couldn't find a good place to have it sprayed...but again it will cost you.

In the end, the $120 difference for me to buy a new OEM bumper wasn't worth all of the running around I'd have to do to save that $120 going with the ebay bumper.
