JDM 9 bumper porthole??!

got a picture sent to me of my car yesterday thats the only way ive been seeing it lately. and the jdm bumper was on i was like yyyeah! ive seen a jdm bumper in person but a. never really liked it b. never really stared at it c. was opposed to getting one so i never cared.
few things ive noticed what is this square box cut out porthole thing to crash beam for? and do all the jdm style bumpers have that? 2nd is it supposed to have a curve to it on the bottom? its not straight across it has a little bubble effect going on. ive tried looking at some pictures on here but i cant really tell. idk if its the bumper or the people who put the bumper on? just want to know cause i want the voltex diffuser to look best.

paint experts*
how many variations of wicked white did mitsubishi make? ( i was told that my color isnt exactly a color theres different colors of my color i want to know if this is true[he wasnt talking about shading or fading either})

yes he is correct all you have to do is give him the correct color code lol problem solved lol. How about some pics of your bumper buddy so we can see exactly what your talking about

Apex Silver A31 A0003PTS11
Blue By You T10 A0002PTL05 (same as Pacific Blue)
Electric Blue T70 MZ313358
Graphite Gray A39 MZ313354
Lightning Yellow Y01 A0002PTY01
Rally Red P85 A996PT1R12 (same as Phoenix Red)
Tarmac Black X42 MZ313375 (same as Labrador Black)
Weightless White W83 AMG3PT1W01 (same as Innsbruck White)
Wicked White W37 MZ313359 (same as Igloo White)
Weightless White & Wicked White both come as the same part number now.
