The main reason I decided to keep the USDM bumpers and crash bars is for the wifes safety.
She is the one who daily's the car..........
But yeah, some of the problems your will see is that your exhaust is hanging too high for the JDM bumper.
Also, the two lower mounting points are too long.
Other than that, the top where the trunk is and the sides should fit perfect.

What about the bumper and the ken lip I have a 1/4 inch diff on one side the other side fits realy good but in order to do that one side has a gap. It's like the bumper is aolt smaller for the lip.

The Kenstyle lip fit the bumper really good for me.
Even my paint and body man was impressed with the fitment.
Did the bumper flex or distort in any way?
Cause honestly, I don't remember the valance having any fitment issues to the japan bumper.
