There is, the JDM bumpers (f & r) have parking antennas on them. That's really the only difference.

That's what those 2 eliminators are in your E brake housing are for.

I think the parking antenna's were an option, so not all JDM bumpers have them.

i've seen in a couple rare cases, eg front bumper that have the side mouldings that wrap around the front corners, much like the SiR bumpers on the EK's. i've only seen this twice though. looks pretty cool.

The molding on the front bumper looks kinda cool. Not cool enough to justify spending 5 times what you can get @ your local junk yard.

The other bumpers with anntenae look ******* gay.

This is all my opinion. Anyone who buys that is seriously takign the socalled JDM craze a little to far.

Is the bumper antenna for parking or for your radio? Sorry, stupid question but I'm curios cause the center arm rest I bought came with a button.

Comes with hood, bumper, head lights with stock bulbs, corner lenses, fenders, and side markers. In great condition with no dents.

What?
JDM 4door is the ferio, and looks just like the USDM, but sometimes comes
with a OEM front lip, that looks like the USDM 2door EX lip.

Man, that black bumper for sale with those moldings on it are like an add on! U can buy them at SUper Autobacs. U can also buy that pole there on the red EG in the pic too! That last black EG is the real honda one, and it was optional. In fact, I think thats the guy I met from the West COvina area awhile back. I live there too. I got mines off of ebay for $31, so it doesn't cost that much, and I just had to install it myself, not too hard either with my multi-sized drill bit (those christmas tree looking ones). Theres already holes molded for the bracket under the bumper next to each fog light mold, but the bracket is only made for the left side of the car, so thats why I installed it on my drivers side, instead of the passenger side like its supposed to be. ANyways, here's my pic:
