What's best as far as what? They are both oem, they don't have cons. General consesus says jdm is better looking and doesn't give a "parachute" effect at the drag strip. But jdm requires you to remove/fab the crash beam and do a custom license plate light job. Hope this helps but I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for

Only complaint/problem I had was because it was shorter than the USDM bumper, I had to shorten my exhaust to make it sit flush. I have an HKS Hi Power.

the only complaint i have is why didn't you search.

if you want a jdm bumper go to driveline.
pros? everything and anything you can image. real or fake.
cons? shorter than usdm, removal of usdm crash beam - demonwerkz has a crash beam for the jdm bumper with license plate mounting holes if you're really worried (i was) - or you can get creative like most already have

search - PLEASE - search
