Alibaba 2nd gen to 3rd front bumper!!
With all the hard work on oem conversions I guess China decided to make an aftermarket cover plug and play to convert to 3rd gen???

Most of that crap imports str8 from china so no return and you're chit out of luck if there's anything wrong with it. Also did anyone notice the min quantity order, this one is only 1 but a lot of the orders must be in bulk purchases. Always a gamble directly from over seas delivery, unless it's Italian or German.

You're correct. What urks me is that the IS is limited to bumper covers. I believe there's only a few aftermarket ones and I personally don't like the way they look. So we are forced to buy the front spoiler and or whole kit. I'm still in the process of converting my front bumper and will mold my kit to it. The rear I'll be doing after and that's a mission on its own. I'd rather buy the bumper cover that has a nice spoiler molded to it but the one I saw was $600, not painted, and I'm not dishing out that money when I can mold and retrofit my own. So either pay or do it yourself.

I'm beginning to see some a few 2nd gen to 3rd gen bumper conversions in China in instagram
I wonder if this is the same kit or these are actual conversions..

it is Korean and not chinese; so i doubt it is from China.
Interested and looking forward to the bumper. I hope the tabs line up for OEM grill. I'm trying not to go aftermarket unless i have to... like the 3IS to 2IS Bumper.
