I've tried it with post-1.2 BM gear.
No stat bonus.
Did a little research, the bonuses transferring on Columi/Rakata seems pretty random and/or a tooltip error.

Well out 500-600k and you lose your set bonus! Your out 1 million plus credits if you want your set bonus back. This is stupid.

YES EXACLY! A SHOT IN THE HEAD!
If your going to troll, at least make sense when doing it.

I bought up all the WH and BM schematics for Inquisitor and have been crafting them and they have been selling well on the AH, now I almost feel bad as most of those people probably didnt realize they cant use existing stuff.

I used the biggest armor crafter on the server and even he didn't know. Major fail Bioware.

Yeah I think Bioware put it out that very few people had over 1 million credits in the game. Welcome to SWTOR in game bankruptcy! Maybe you can get a loan shark to lend you 500k on the server or something? I'm still stunned that they made this huge of a fubar!

So if you have old rakata or old BM gear the armoring wont contain te set bonus.

If you went and got a new rakata item tonight, it has the set bonus on the armoring.

Bioware, go figure.
Yeah, this is really, really lame.

Bioware: Sure, you can transfer set bonus to your custom orange items.*


* only if you regrind all of your gear once more! HA!

So people who worried about augments breaking the game should not be worried in the end...
Kinda sucks. I like how my character look, but I was very eager to see new appearances in WZs.
