I want to see if I like how it looks (if it looks like an evo a little bit). I could get it for $30. Thanks for your help.

Its not black, it's CF vinyl, but you get the idea. It was a pain to install though because it was really hard to stop the air bubbles.

I had mine done but it got chipped up after snow melted with all the rocks on the roads etc.
So I ended up taking it off.
I was supposed to do another one and protect it with 3M, but that's a lot of work and don't know if it's really worth it anymore.
I was actually thinking about just getting a different bumper instead :P

Painting is another way to go. From what I see its a lot of work though. Clear coat would protect better than the mitsu paint

Hey, where could you get it for $30?

I've seen it on eBay for about $70, or so I believe, for the the centre and lower piece.

thanks!

Can't really see it was CF. But seriously, you should consider to add the front air dam extension to make it look awesome.
