Before and after. Think the JDM bumper looks better than the dura flex one.

you can buy the JDM FL grill too to match it with the bumper. :)

A step in the right direction. It could use some jdm headlights and grille. For some reason it looks very incomplete without them.

JDM heads and the FL grill are ever-so-slightly taller than the USDM heads and grill, but since they mount at the same height, the JDM's sit slightly lower. That's why there's a gap under the heads and grill when using USDM heads/grille with a JDM bumper, especially the FL bumper because its grill has that lip that protrudes down. That might be the incomplete look Matt is referring to. It's also why I'm on the fence about using my modified USDM bumper with my JDM heads, the heads might push the bumper down and give me a gap between the fender and bumper. I want everything to fit like stock. However, I totally agree, the FL JDM makes it look loads better, though it might have something to do with the poor finish on the original bumper. Keep up the progress!

It does look odd without a JDM grill in it. I have it on the list to get one. The grill in it now looked ok with the stock and then the duraflex but now it has that lip in top of the bumper that isn't covered by this grill. Kinda looks odd now. I did get new projector headlights in but they are USDM so I have gaps under the headlights.
