wow... bolting/screwing on the radiator support is such a dumb@$$ idea. Say bye-bye to your front-end rigidity. Why? Parts can rotate around bolted connections, while welded connections cannot move.

Did you get into some kind of accident? If not I would leave the R with the USDM front.
Only reason I have the JDM front is because of an accident I had. I got hit in the right front and there went my R's value, F it went JDM front, Oh well. If I didn't get into an accident I would still have my USDM front on the car.

Re: Tools you need!!!
Isnt there a way to modify the usdm bumper support to fit the JDM bumper? I would rather go that route. Is it true that there is a rule that doesn't allow jdm front teg owner to autox because the weak bumper support? Sounds like a SHOWKAA to me.
