Slightly disappointed over the install but it's better than before.
Before


After


There's a gap on the right side since the support is bent in. The hood gap is bugging the crap out of me. And the partially broken tab on the passenger side headlight broke off when I was installing it. FML. Oh well, I can't see it on the outside. It'll do for now. Bumper fits 95% IMHO, but it's worth the $80 well spent.

Id guess jdm gsr block (b18c). b18cr is usually the reference for a itr block, but not how its stamped. Still.. could be.

$80 is good price but if that 2% non fit was edges/alignment, i couldnt accept it. I know one side is bent but it looks like both sides are off. Non form fitting parts throws off the entire appearance.

I understand your point of view. It's not aligned right because the support's bent and a PITA to correct. I also noticed my driver's fender is damaged and rusting up. I have no complaints for the price I paid but I've already decided to go JDM front once I add my theft insurance/renters insurance goes through to correct currently known issues. I found a person with great references that can do complete install with lip and welded supports for 700.

In the meantime, since school started and 15 units + work, I got the alarm installed with extra security measures. I also noticed the blown suspension is starting to take it's toll. Slow updates but here's a teaser for now that I just picked up for a lovely steal price.
