i dont see why not its made by ViS and they are really good from what i hear with peeps with body kits but it is still made with fiberglass right?...so with that in mind id say it would be nice then again it might break easy because its fiber glass...

Looks legit to me.
I recently put my car into a snow bank lightly and needed to put a new bumper on. It cost 90 dollars, new.
Aftermarket aesthetics are such a waste

PS: This should be posted in the appearance/cosmetics forum, you'll get more help there.
EDIT:
Me telling you about my bumper price has nothing to do with that site, I'm just illustrating to you how much of a waste of $$ it is.

its not a real "air walker" bumper... the link you provided is a "walker bumper" instead of a "air walker bumper" from japan.
its harder to get a legit air walker bumper than a legit Backyard Special Bumper.
Memoryfab.com sells the BYS bumpers. (they too are a sponsor here)
Weaksauce.org sells knock offs of the air walker bumper for 400 shipped
a member here got his knock off air walker bumper from http://www.absdynamics.com. Fits like a glove but the diff between real air walker bumper and a knock off is that the (Si) grill is integrated into the bumper in the knock off while the real air walker bumper you use your own Si grill.

Um, that constitutes part of a body kit. It's a non-oem style front bumper.

meaning its an aftermarket front bumper... not a body kit... a body kit is multi piece.. hence the word kit

Sideskirts, rear bumper, front bumper.
BODYKIT.

The pic in the link shows what believes to be an integrated kevlar lip like the BYS bumper, but it isn't mentioned in the product description.
Probably showing a picture of a real BYS bumper to represent the copied product.

Yes, I understand that. They show a picture of the BYS bumper but are trying to sell a VIS airwaker style bumper.

he got a walker bumper from http://www.absdynamics.com
his fitment is good and possibly better than the authentic air walker bumper.

i'm not a fan of the integrated si grill i'd rather have it be seperated like the real deal... or else i'd pick this replica up in a second.
