In the second pic, right below where the headlights would be, there is a piece I've never seen on the bumper before. I'd just wait till you find something better.

That's the 'jdm' bumper corners.

Many people like them....I think they're pretty nifty myself.

I've got a replacement bumper from Taiwan...it fits just like stock. That doesn't mean that ALL of them do though

Its looks very real to me I had the same bumper. Look at the trim hole for the front trim. Most fake bumpers you have to cut them out. They look really clean. I would jump on it. Very clean JDM look
