Bumper to fit 2009 ES Lancer

[CJ_lancer_772]

Howdy all!

I have a question. I am going to be purchasing some new tail lights shortly, but i also need my rear bumper replaced as its had a few knocks, and its scratched and dented etc. I dont really want the same generic ES bumper, so im wondering if any of the different looking ones would fit it? I know that an EVO bumper is out of the question though, as it looks fatter and the arches over the tyres are larger.

Any help would be appreciated, so that when i take her down to Seacliff Crash to get repaired, they can get one in for me. Cheers.

Mars and body kits kingdom make evo/ralliart replicas, check eBay

If you're going down that path, have a look at this:

I was doubtful of the quality of that one Mitch? I noticed a few Chinese ones going on eBay lately, made by prc

Most of these aftermarket units come from China or Taiwan anyway...

That last one is good too! Thanks for all your help!

If i read correctly, it fits straight onto the stadard bumper?? Thats easy work! I'd just need it sprayed silver!

[Zaphod]

The last one is fibreglass, so it will need pre-fitting to make it fit perfectly - it glues & screws on - remember fibreglass is stiff, plastic is flexible...

Easy to do if you get it installed by a decent panelbeater / spray painter.

Thats what i was thinking of doing. Order it and then take it with me to my repair shop and get them to fit it when i get my new bumper

Thanks again for your help!

If they're going to order you a new bumper anyway, just get them to order a RA bumper and pay the extra...

[CJ_lancer_772]

ah ok. I feel silly thinking that one of them wouldnt fit!

But still would mean i need a new exhaust too?

If your car is pre-2013, you can just bolt on an RA exhaust - about $100-150 for a second-hand one
