in my opinion they dont put usdm bumpers in their cars. they usually put body kits (veilside) just like MOT said. coz they have the stuff in their hands unlike us that we have to order it from them..

well considering that there is only 1 USDM bumper and Japan can already get it from an evo VIII I dont really think that they are in high demand. I dont even think we can call our bumpers USDM I mean they are made and assembled in Japan right alongside JDM evos. ????

I've seen some cars in Japan that have decals in English the way a lot of ricers used to put Japanese language decals on their cars in the USA. I've seen pics of cars in Japan with decals that say "VERY FAST" or "GO QUICK".

The JDM ricers buy USDM parts when they are trying for the US "import look". Most people stick with real parts like Walbro fuel pumps, precision injectors, Aeromotive fuel pumps and regulators, Garrett USA turbos, Nitto drag radials, BFG drag radials and parts like that.

There are not many people who want the USDM STi motor because the JDM Forrester STi comes from the factory with a turbo EJ25 and there are more than a few companies that offer 100mm piston kits for the EJ20.

Sticker tunes and wacky english (japanglish) stickers have been around for a very long time over here. The funniest club name I have seen is the "Drifting Negros (circa 1993)". Not a single black person was on that team...bwahahahaha.
