Can the Ralliart Front Lip for the IX fit the VIII?

Japanparts.com claims it is made for the CT9A, which is comprised of the VII, VIII, and IX.



Any idea?

i'm kinda confused as to what you're talking about..

what does it replace?



apparently, the beatrush aluminum undertray fits both the IX and the VIII (www.kamispeed.com).... so i don't quite see how the bottom is different from the VIII to the IX.

I think hes saying it replaces the entire frontal lip. It doesnt look like it will just slip over our stock ones.

i know. that's how it should fit.

the genuine do-luck lip for the VIII is a full replacement, not a cover-up.

The OEM front lips of the IX and VIII are different.

Look a little closer at the sides of the bumper.

They're not cross-compatible!

IX




VIII

The beatrush underpanel works on the Evo 8 & 9 because it just replaces the underpanels; which are the same.:

i think they're like 400+shipping, which is a moderate price in comparison to other jdm body parts

The underpanel is $399+shipping. However, we will be having a GB in the future for many of Beatrush products (www.laile.co.jp). Please stay tune or contact us for details.
