I swear, this looks nothing like an evo x bumper. It looks exactly like the grand prix GTP's and toyota matrix's though.

This mod is like the next big thing, and so many people are doing it, it doesn't stand out anymore...


Here is what I decided to do instead...

Found an interesting option for those who may not want to actually paint our bumpers (to make it more easier to return to stock)

http://www.crateenginedepot.com/stor...P3924C399.aspx

Order that and paint it black....

The bottom part can be covered in black viynl. Top I havent found a viynl company willing to do it.

I'm currently in the process of working with House of Grafx to try and make a vinyl for this purpose.

I'll be measuring things out tomorrow and sending it off for them to cut. When I get it back, I'll post pics and if it works out good, theyre gonna sell it to the public for possibly around $30.
