I like the idea of the JDM heads with the 8Gb front, I know I could make it work.
Nah, I loved my front bumper, but its hard to install jdm heads, because you can't go out a by a jdm grill for the 8gb, and my bumper was FUBAR'D so I wanted a change so I went with the new style, and then the dolphin. If I didnt sell it, and I could fit a 3 inch intercooler behind it, I would rock the 8gb front bumper, with a lip.

Installed my oem 3g eclipse strut bar. Took a min to get things lined up right. Swapped brackets back and forth on the strut towers until I realized they're side specific based on the bar, then all of a sudden the bar fits. Don't no why it was sitting on the towers correctly the first time smh. Its on there properly...no ghetto rigging or modification so I'm leaving it lol. Really would like to paint or powdercoat at some point, but not today lol. Things feel a little tighter but couldn't really push it cause its wet outside. I feel like it will go well with the springs I have to put on and the struts I'm thinking of getting down the road.
So this is what came in yesterday....

just incase anybody is wondering... if you get a oil sandwich adapter i would recommend using the evo oil filter for better clearance. i tried the stock sized filter and since my car is dropped so low it was a little dangerous. it sticks down passed the cross member and oil pan.
here is a comparison picture
