I LIKE it. Just sent a PMSG to Adam about this. I hope it does retain the bumper supports.

it is a photochop... i sort of like it, but I don't think i would do it to my Evo... but, if you want to change the bumper, i think i would go with the 7's over any of the aftermarket ones

The nice thing about these bumpers are:

1. there are many aftermarket front lip spoilers offered for it should you wish to add it at a later date

2. they come prepainted from Mitsubishi in factory colors!

3. direct bolt on - requires removal of support as do every other aftermarket front bumper

4. made of urethane (just like the OEM VIII bumper), not fiberglass, s can withstand a variety of weather changes, etc without getting wrecked

5. OEM part - cannot get better fit !

I think the grill area looks goofy. looks to big. I think the stock bumper on evo8s are really really nice. I always get complimented on my "body kit"

The Evo 7 front looks light-years better than the Evo 8 front. It's just classier to me, more low-key. Plus it looks real mean with a CF lower lip. The Evo 7 rear looks a lot better/cleaner too. The Evo just isn't a curvy car, it's angular and sharp. The evo 8 bumpers are just too bulbous.

I completely agree. The boxy look tha the 7 had, was just plain more aggressive looking and better fitting for the part than the curvacious body pieces of the 8.

I'm not much for, all show / no go pieces. But this may be the front end mod for me, always hated the 8's front bumper...

Never realized the 7's bumper would bolt up with such little '****ing around'
