link to the kit so we can see what the end result is gonna look like?

 

[Bigbaddad]

My goal is to have the whole exterior of the car look like it came from Japan, with a Japan Spec Kenstyle aero kit installed on it.
My kit came from Japan about a month ago, now I'm just trying to convert the USDM body parts to JDM, so the Japan kit will fit.

Hey i am debating on buying a kenstyle bumper. i don't need to change out the crash bar if i want to mount the KS front end on do I?

 

[MSP SuperStreet]

Props on your unique JDM project.
Looking forward to seeing the result of your hard work.

That is a sexy kit. Never seen that kit, but by far the best looking one.

First off, thanks again for the great words of encouragement.
I'll be sure to post up anything new as this project progresses.

Now to answer andethy.....
I don't think you can just buy the Kenstyle bumper by itself.
I do know that you can get replicas of the Kenstyle kit that offer just pieces of the kit, like just the bumper.
I've heard that the replicas will fit right over the USDM spec crash bars, foam and all.
Just keep in mind that the bumpers geometry will look a little different than the one pictured on the Kenstyle site, because of it's USDM fitment.
For me, I'm going for the total JDM exterior look, down to the short JDM front bumper, and rear bumper cover.

[Bigbaddad]
