Default jdm front bumper

Alright, I searched and didn't find what I was looking for...I'm thinking about getting an EF hatch or CRX, but I'm not really feelin the front bumper...I like the jdm bumper, but I'm not really interested in spending upwards of a grand on doing the conversion...so I guess my question is, is it possible to put the jdm bumper on a usdm car without the conversion by modifying it? If so, what mods are needed to make it fit? If not, please explain why, don't just say no and call me a n00b. thanks.

The JDM front bumper will not fit correctly without the JDM headlights and hood.

The headlights are a little bit longer than the USDM ones.

As far as I have seen, there isn't a way to get the JDM front bumper on a USDM car without a lot of work.

There are a couple of people who have installed just the JDM Bumper on a USDM front end...Doesn't flow too well in my opinion but, to each their own....I would go with the full conversion. Shop around....it isn't always a grand or upwards of

The filler piece is different and does not line up with the headlights and hood of the USDM front end...Do not attempt that.

Here is my old hatch from way back...Most people didn't even know what Tein was back then...let alone JDM! LOL!

I was actually talking about using the jdm bumper with the usdm bumper filler...I'm really tempted to try it if I end up getting an EF.
