That looks like the US bumper support, You should have the jdm bumper support in the jdm bumper.

if you use the usdm support, you need to cut those ends (in the picture) off.

i didnt use a rad support for my JDM front end. it bolts right to where the USDM support would go.

also for the headlights, i BELIEVE it goes (based on your pic- right to left)

Highbeam, Ground (connect both high and low beam grounds to this wire), and Lowbeam.

twist em together and test before you make final connections, but im pretty sure thats how mine is

which method are you using?? leaving the support on or not?? if the supports on, it might make fitting the headlights harder

i didnt use the bumper support, and my headlights bolted right up - no problems.

bumper support does not interfere with the headlights

right. i was thinking he meant the lights "flush" to the bumper cover. not sure if the bumper support would push the JDM bumper out causing it to stick out from the headlights, making a gap/not "flush" to the headlights

Do it yourself man, took me 3 hours to install the initial kit, then 14 hours the next two days to nit pick and line everything up perfect, takes time, might look like your going backwards at times whne **** start to go oout of wack then out of knowwhere they all line up

And this was on my friends car and I didnt really care lol, but I got $100
