Default dumb 4th gen questions ,searching didnt help me.

1st qusetion what determines the difference between the vents next to the headlights? i see with 1 and 2 bars. have always wondered the difference, if it was jdm/usdm, model,year. 2ndly what, if any is the differnce between the jdm bumper cover and the us cover? i ask mostly cause i just got a jdm bumper off of password and aside from the bumper support it is exactly the same as what i have. i figured the fog holes woulda been open already and almost all pics i have seen of the jdm ludes online have 1 bar vents not 2. either way the support is and i needed new vent anyways and these are perfect.

vents
1 bar = 92-93 usdm
2 bar = 94-96 usdm
And Im pretty sure all the jdm vents are 1 bar. As far as the bumper cover itself, there is no difference.

The bumper support itself is the only thing different like was said, and the JDM piece is much lighter.

Is the JDM one not made of steel like the USDM? I have been trying to find one.

it's steel, but basicly just the top part where the cover clips on, is a fraction of the weight.

Japan's more lenient crash test requirement.

USDM wise, I think only '92 has the one bar; my '93 has 2 bars and my '92 has 1 bar. Could be wrong, but pretty sure this is how it is.
