Addressing a lot of questions I once had with the Rear JDM Bumper install for the evo 8 and 9. How to install the JDM evo rear bumper correctly using all the oem brackets was something I always wanted to do and finally I found out how to do it & what brackets I needed. Hopefully some of this information is helpful for some of you guys doing the swap over to the JDM bumper. Like always if you guys have any questions please don't hesitate to leave them down in the comments. Much love!

I first discovered this channel when my gas cap wouldn't open (thanks for that video!) and since then have been slowly making my way through the playlists. Thank you for all the great information!
My dude!! Thank you so much for watching!
Yeah I'm not dealing with that mess. I use the Boosted Fab rear bar with light brackets. It fits perfect.
🤣🤣🤣 honestly if it’s not broken don’t fix it
Same. Boosted Fab 💪🏽
You welcome for the JDM part numbers 😎.
Also for USDM cars, just use the STM crash bar along with a license bracket (optional from Amazon but not required) and the license will fit perfectly where it’s position higher.
The lower bracket is to help the structure of the diffuser so it doesn’t get that belly effect.
Thank you!!!! Life Saver!!!
As someone who just picked up an Evo 8 with the jdm 9 rear I THANK you for that rant. Now I can make sure to complete it properly with the Japanese parts . Thanks man
Shit like this makes it all worth it man! Glad I could help you!!
I’m not gonna lie, that license plate location would eat at me. I do however appreciate the info on the button support bracket for the bumper!
You know it’s eating me as well 🤣 I think I found a easy solution tho! 😬
For usdm car, I would highly recommend afterhours automotive rear crash bar.
Has protection and looks. You can mount license plate lights, and it has a special bracket for the bottom of your jdm bumper , so it doesn't flap around or move.
I installed the jdm 9 bumper onto my 8(jdm) last week, I didn’t know it needed different light bracket also, stm didn’t sell them and there’s like no information on it. I kind of just DIY’d the lights to be in that area above the plate, as for the actual plate bracket, i bought the jdm 9 bracket, and I reused the 2 rubber thingy from jdm 7/8 bumper plate bracket, and it comes out to be the same location as this proper way also. thanks for the video though, now i should look for those light bracket too.
It's crazy that they don't list these parts on the website... If I can get them I am sure they can get them a lot easier!!
What Japanese website did you order those parts? A lot of Evo 8 / 9 parts are backorder in the state, the lead times are super long, like 8 - 12 months long.
Right,!? I've been wondering the same thing. I've even dm'ed him on IG and no answer.. some of these sites are fishy. I've seen the light bracket listed anywhere from 11$ - $88, which is it. Lol I'm not trying to get scammed either some of the sites seem sketchy.
Me too! No response to my question. Don't know why a website is so secret 🤔 Anyhow, I just dislike and unsubscribed, bye!
@@tysonbanks167 word I feel you on that. I gave it 2 weeks and I did the same, but like a dork I keep checking to see if there are any updates on this topic.. 🤦🏽♂️ if I do come across anything I'll tag ya. 👍✌️
Hi Chris, I fitted the 9 JDM bumper to my 7.. to get the plate sitting higher I used 2 long screws plus 2 spacers, the spacers went between the plate and the bracket on the rear of the car.. I then used a couple of countersunk washers to tidy it up visually, it looks so much better than being down low. I’m in the UK and find your videos really informative, thanks 🙏
Very good to know! I love how we are all communicating our ideas! I think I found a solution to my problem and will be posting it on the channel!
@@ChrisGoorbarry I think the spacers needed were around 16mm long, but I can’t remember for sure.. It was a few years ago!
I’ll be sure to watch your solution 😎👍
10k subs incoming, channel deserves this
Appreciate you bro!!
I have a usdm Evo 8 in Europe and got the edm OEM Evo 9 rear bumper, which looks the same as the jdm bumper but is a little different with mounting points and stuff.. got the usdm light bracket to work after some slight modifications (cutting, bending and welding).. but having full OEM like you looks mint! Good job and thanks for the video!
It's cool to finally see an OEM license plate install done the right way! I always wonder how the hell do I do this the OEM way but after seeing the placement of it I think i prefer the plate hang a littler higher. 😅😅
haha I think I found a nice solution for it tho! I'll share it on the channel
New video from Chris, then F1 race and at the end sea!!! What an amazing Sunday!!!
Chris I think a Milwaukee M12 will help you a lot with screws and nuts at the car😉
Appreciate you!! I love F1! great sunday for me too haha and I need to get one!!
Appreciate the detailed effort and breaking it down. Maybe have that JDM spec license plate bracket cut, re-welded and you respray black for that JDM/usdm flush fit OEM+ look.
Exactly what I am thinking! Just remake the holes a bit higher and for a us plate!! It will sit flush and perfect!!!
hi can you please tell us Where do you order your parts from
I noticed that bracket when you first took the bumper off and it all made sense why the jdm bracket didn’t work for me. Measurements for that bracket would be super helpful!
DM me
Well in my Evo 8 I install an Evo 8 rear JDM bumper like the one came oem with you red Evo, and it was very easy to fit the licence plate. I just bend the oem braket a little.
Good to know that with the evo 8 jdm rear there isn't that many issues!
My vote: keep the plate as-is to retain the "real" JDM look. You have a RHD car - it's cool to have little touches like that be slightly different than all of the other cars on the street.
No corners cut
Papi, de voy a seguir y más que eres de Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 💪🏽🔥 Ta lindo tú Evo JDM😍 me encanta!!!!
Gracias bro!! PR en la casa!!
It's weird that the us didn't get the same bumper design. Also I absolutely love the color and wheels
Wow man it looks perfect for that Evo
Hi Chris, You have a good car page!
Hey, thanks!
@@ChrisGoorbarry I have see you recommend Thinkcar SF100 scanner in the video. Do you like to test a better scanner?
Chris: “I’m gonna make this car as OEM as I can.”
Also Chris: “I’m gonna remove all OEM wipers that serve a vital purpose.” 😅
I’m just messing with you bro. You’re a better man than me, I wouldn’t go through all that trouble for a plate. Ironically I’ve had an aftermarket plate holder I’ve been meaning to install for a year. I’ll be installing it soon. I’ll let you know how it works out.
LMAOO The wiper might come back soon we will see and lmk if it works out!
Very good video. The editing is awesome, too.
Just an idea. Why don't you sell kits since no one else does?
Also, I'm a little confused. Since your Evo is a JDM model, why was it missing all the hardware?
Keep up the great work. I, too, love using as much OEM parts as possible.
Very good point and because the it had an evo 8 rear bumper so the brackets and lights are all different
Your Evo looks smooth and clean. My question for you is where is the rear crash beam. You got no protection for the body itself. I did some searching myself for my 03 Evo for the jdm Evo 9 rear and went with demonworks rear crash bar. And I didn't need the extra bracket for my tag. The crash bar had the L bracket welded to it and lined up fine.
The JDM Evos come without one :/ Maybe I will add some aftermarket ones later on!!
@@ChrisGoorbarry well then, I thought they did from factory. That's new to me. Anyway, when you do decide make sure it is stated in the description or call and talk to someone about a rear crash bar that fits/works with the jdm bumper. USDM crash bar for the ct9a body won't work.
Compared to my Aus Delivered Evo 9 the bracket is totally different (they come with the JDM bumper)
Make a bracket and tap it to fit US plate then rivet it to factory JDM plate bracket. Thats what i would do.
I have a solid solution I think! I'll share in the channel!
Just install a After hours automotive rear bumper support and called it a day
Thank you!
I've Evo 9 with the JDM rear bumper from the factory and I definitely don't have that bracket that hold the license plate from the bottom.
Can you please send to my instagram DM how it comes?? This is very interesting. If you don't have instagram you can email me.
Hey Chris you didn’t show us the bumper reinforcement bracket install. Also what site to get this stuff since the dealership isn’t timely? Thank you
Chris very informative video. Have to ask as I peeked into your trunk. Any plans for a rear upper strut bar? I run one in my car. I believe it does help with rear stability and rigidity.
I might consider one but then I would have to brake the panels for the trunk or remove them correct.
I believe you can make surgical cuts to keep them and make it look clean.
I see nothing wrong with the plate bro. If you like the true OEM finish leave it as is. It personal preference. 🇵🇷
I’m scared of getting rear ended the littlest bump and there goes my jdm tail lights bumper and rk exhaust haha
LOL I'll die
I bought that same bracket and flap because STM said I needed it. Boy they were wrong. i was so confused on how it supposed to work. Realized after that it doesn’t fit in the USDM evo
I’m telling you!! I did the same with the GG Evo and I was so confused!!!
The JDM bumper was too much work for me so I just purchased and installed an APR CF rear diffuser and called it a day
Where did you get all the correct bolts to mount the lower bracket
dont understand why you removed the good looking jdm evo 8 bumper for a tacky jdm evo 9 one....ruins the look
I like the evo 9 bumper better
@@ChrisGoorbarry but its tacky
@@evolad2463 it really isn’t. is about 200% better in every way, but that’s subjective
@@AndyZULUL its not
jdm evo 9 has an diffuser that has no benefits and just looks tacky
so beautiful😍
Thank you!
Can i get the website where you order them parts straight from japan?
Thanks
Hello Chris. I recently found your channel. Great content by the way. I have some questions if you don't mind. Im curious to know, you acquired a JDM evo before the 25yr rule so how is this legal? Anyways I was researching about the jdm evo seats are more narrower and has more support than usdm ones. Is this true since you own both? Do you know how i can acquire jdm evo 9 leather seats? Thank You
I’m even more confused your evo is right hand drive so it’s already true jdm why doesn’t it have all those parts already?
Because I switched from the JDM evo 8 bumper to the evo 9 bumper so all the brackets and lights were different.
R u doing a stand alone ecu on this car?
Yes!
I have a question lol
How are you Puerto Rican and your last name is Goorbarry 🤔
HAHHAHA best question yet lmao! My second last name is Sanchez. My dad's family is from Guyana.
@@ChrisGoorbarry oooohh okay lol makes sense haha
Yeah I always wondered that since you Made the video of you going to PR
