Default jdm bumper question.

i bought a jdm bumper from a member here, he told me that i didnt need the jdm bumper support when he sold it to me. so my question is.... do i really need it? and/or will the stock bumper support work also?

you will need the jdm bumper support. the usdm and jdm supports are way different. the jdm support is very light aluminum. the usdm is thicker. good luck finding a jdm bumper support. they aren't that easy to come by. I picked mines up from Venus Auto in Sacramento. give them a call.

Technically you DONT need one to install the bumper but that just means you'll be driving around with no bumper support and it may not line up as well. But I would still be patient and search until you find one.

I agree. I think u should keep looking until u find that bumper support. It's there for a reason.Band like VIP said good luck finding one because most of the time u will only get one with the front clip

Try garage 9/ jager engineering. I got mine from them and they had 2 Aristo parts cars at the time. Im not sure what happened with the 2nd one but give them a call. Last time I talked to user Bippu147 (canadian) he had one but he seemed busy at the time so I went to garage 9 because I could get it quicker. But he still may have it. Join ClubAristo as well, they're all authentic Aristos and mostly from out of the country to they're more frequent on there.
