Im in Toronto.

Thanks for the offer, my plan was to keep the 9 bumper tho. Even tho i think the 8 bumper looks better if/when i sell the car i will probably end up putting the 9 bumper back on.

Plus youre are kind of far logistically wise

i dont mind the 8 or 9 front bumpers but the 9 JDM bumper is def way better than the 8

The 7 bumper does not fit properly with an 8/9 hood.

And the plastic undertray is DEFINITELY different between the VII and the VIII. I've owned both cars.

this may be true but i know 8 & 9s are def fine. i have seen and spoken to a few ppl with 7's who run 9 front and rear bumpers without much issues. never actually heard of anyone running a 8/9 putting a 7 f/r bumper on though
