I think 4 5 and 6 all fit with very little jiggery pokery.


But dont blame me if its a right pain in the ass to fit a 6

Changing a front bumper on an evo has issues with the airbag sensors. Dont be surprised if after its fitted - the SRS light on your dash comes on.

It may not mean that the airbags are inoperative but - the ECU has detected something has changed and flags the warning light and will need diagnostics to correct it (meaning a mitsubishi dealer to check it out unfortunately)

story of my life....complications

It's not complicated.

Just means a pain in the ar$e trip to a dealer - the wait (if your lucky)

If your not lucky then it's a trip from the wife to pick you up whilst the car spends an overnighter in the hospital.

Then a trip back to the hospital to pick up the patient.

Plus the wallet-ache that then ensues.

Personaly, I'd rather spend the cash knowing if the airbags will work after your bumper exchange, as safety always comes first.

Ps. I adjusted my driver seat and the SRS light came on.

It's still on to this day. Do I care - not a jot !

Untill I have to sell it that is

wtf dude lol it doesnt effect anything lol you can run an evo without a bumper on and it dont do anything lollollol

Only the 4 bumper fits a 4.
5/6 are wider for the wider arches.
And there is no problem with the sensors/SRS lights as there are no wires connections to it when it gets removed.
