Hey so I recently got in a fender bender with another guy but I messed up my front bumper pretty bad and I don't think it can be easily fixed. Does anyone know where I can get a hold of a Ralliart front bumper or know of anyone who is trying to sell one?

Check the for sale section, but it's probably slim picking for the Ralliart since there aren't too many of us actively on here.

Any Mitsubishi dealer is your best bet. Yes it'll be expensive as hell but your other alternative is to buy online but pay a ton for shipping such a large part. I dont know how badly your front damage is but if the crash bar was bent at all Id switch to the Evo x front which will require front evo x fenders and crash bar. Also look aftermarket, they are almost always cheaper than oem unless your getting an expensive jdm brand. You'll pay shipping still but it may still be cheaper than oem.

I've always wondered how that would look. I'd think it would look out of place, the front of the car would be wider than the rest of the car since Ralliarts don't have wider side skirts and rear fenders/ass like the X.

Forgive my ignorance...

So the regular gts / lancer front bumpers will or will not fit a ralliart??????

I know just about every aftermarket body piece will require work to fit right but are the ralliarts wider or the same as a gts???????

I think they would fit, some guy on here had a gts bumper on his ralliart while his ralliart bumper was being repaired. Probably not the most efficient at drawing air to the fmic, but better than nothing I suppose.

For any reason other than that, I see no reason why anybody would ever do such a thing to their ralliart.

Because I like this bumper and its pretty reasonable price wise, is why I was asking!!

Nice lower splitter like integral lip and bigger ducts for sst cooler.

Looks legit even though it's for a gts. Only thing is you'd have to cob job some mesh or something in the front to protect the fmic from stones and debris.

I recently read a thread about someone trying to install a similar bumper and it sounded like a nightmare. Also the car looked terrible with it:

These body kits are usually cheap for a reason and never look as good as the pictures they are advertised with. Just put an OEM Ralliart or regular Lancer bumper (the latter should be direct fit and doesn't restrict airflow in any way as someone suggested in this thread, though it looks pretty sad without the aid of some Plasti Dip and an aftermarket lip). They are about 600 bucks and you can install them yourself very easily.

If that much damage was done just go with the Evo x front, crash bar, and fenders. They are a little wider but not so wide that it would look stupid on the Ralliart. Google it, people have done it. Otherwise you are going to have to buy oem Mitsubishi Ralliart parts anyways and are going to pay a ton.
