Ok, Im driving today normally in the middle of the road going straight all of a sudden snow flys up from the ground. Im in NYC we just had the biggest snow storm ever, so I get to my destination and I realize half of my StreetConcept version 1 (the nonreplacement one) CF LIP is missing, I say damn it and ripped off the other half.

I can't decide if I should get the EVO IX front bumper from street concepts or just buy another CF Lip from them.

Does anyone have their EVO IX front bumper??? Im concerned about fitment although they said the fitment is good.

I got quoted price of 745 shipped for the EVO IX Front + CF LIP OR 430 shipped for another CF Lip for my 8 bumper?

what would you dO how many people have dealt with SC bumpers , they are so cheap but how do they fit??? any feedback about the bumpers would greatly be appreciated .

Well, if you are going to go with an evo IX front bumper, I would say to just go the right way and buy the real thing since you are already spending that much money. I personally don't think that it is worth buying a replica or fiberglass peice that won't last as long. Street concepts is a good company and I am not dissing them in any way. but If I where you I would just buy the real thing.

thanks for you input

I like the IX front , but I just can't justify spending 1500 on the real deal from Mitsu thats is why Im considering the replica one. Why would you say it wont last as long though I dont know much about bumper material and what not, but I figure it would last, as long as I dont get into an accident?

Has ANYONE on here have IX front from street concept please chime in your opinion would greatly help my decision.
