Ok, what exactly is your question? That's look going to the doctor so he can patch you up without telling him whats wrong.

yea thats one of my problems the T-bar does not line up with the hood so it does not latch and the mounts on the bumper support are not the same as the usdm one

I just installed my side skirts all you need is some double sided tape,self taping screws and washers depending on the screw you may not want the washer,but it helps support it better. All this can be found at your local homedepot.

if its the complete front end,take off your front bumper and the bumper filler,then your headlights (jdm head lights dont use the brackets usdm ones have they bolt right on),you could use your stock fenders, they are the same as jdm minus the side markers.take off the T-bar and put the jdm one,at this point you could put the new old sir hood,and start trying to get it to close right.I did a combination of moving the latch on the t-bar more forward and same to the hood latch.You have to use a grinder.You also need patience because there is a lot of test fitting and grinding.In the end i had to use washers on my hood latch to get it to raise up a bit and align with my fenders.Now you can put on your jdm headlights and corner lights. After that you can put on your new old jdm bumper filler straight forward.Then then you can put on your jdm bumper,you will also need longer boltsand washers between your cars cross member and the bumper to get the ends of your bumper to line up with your fenders.Most of this is just my own experience it was the first time i installed my front end.Other people may have a different way but it worked for me.gl

When you hold the bumper support up to the front of your car, are you able to drill in new holes, seeing as the previous bumper support's holes dont line up?
