i am installing my conversion and i was just wondering if the usdm front bumper support is the same as the jdm one. would i need a new support?

 

and also how do you remove the sideskirts to get to the fender bolts. i have all the clips off and it aint budging..

 

No the bumper support is not the same. The JDM support has small tabs that interlock your front bumper in place. USDM does not. Also, your side skirts should just push to the side and then they will come off the car.
