No Problem...here to help.

Don't be afraid to use a search engine...I use DOGPILE.com alot.

I'm not all that briliant, but dogpile gets me through it all. Just type what you are really looking for. For that I just put in the search box, Eclipse Octane and that is what I got....

Good Luck

My Octane front does not have that abrupt 90 degree angle as shown in the picture from this link http://www.autosportz.com/bodykits_95_99_mitshubishi_eclipse_octane.htm

Mine is nice and smooth and rounded. Its a very nice front though and I would recommend it to anyone.

Picture of my car below with the Octane front (sorry only pic I have)




The only problem I had was a bit of a gap below the headlights. But its not hard to fill that in.

Hope everything works out and I'd like to see pics when you get installed.

Yes, if you order a 97-99 Octane bumper. Be sure to be very specific when ordering. Aggression made a point about "abrupt 90 degree angle." When i ordered my Octane bumper from VIS they gave me a 95-96 bumper, and it had abrupt 90 degree like angles. The bumper looked great from a side profile, but from an angle it was way off.



Look at the passenger side headlight on the left. Notice the way the bumper protrudes out?



This is the R34 97-99 style bumper that you want. Pic belongs to dougie 2.

EDIT: Refresh a few times to get the img. Imagestation. . .
