Default JDM Front End - No JDM Rad support. Can this be done?

I am looking at buying a jdm front clip. It consists if - Fenders, Bumper, Bumper filler piece, Headlights, and Hood. There is no JDM rad support with this. Can I use or modify my USDM rad support? Will this bolt on, and work?? Any input would be appreciated!

Thanx

yes, you have to extedn it out word. There was a post out it a month ago I think. He used washers or something to that affect. Ghetto, but worked.

Password can probably hook you up with one for cheap.

If you are going JDM, dont be cheap, because you already know all the parts are expensive. Just do it the right way and get the JDM Radiator support. But it can be done. JDM = Please dont go ghetto. Just my 2 cents.

Yes, it fits just fine.
No washers need either. That guy did quite a getho job on his installation.
All you need to do is remove the latch mechanism in the hood and slot the holes towards the back of the bracket (towards the windshield)
I did that on mine and it fits perfectly, no washers.
here is a picture of my JDM front and and the USDM rad support.
the shinny bolts you see are stainless steel bolts I used to replace the factory ones.
