I'm fixing to order the TechSport kit for my car, but I can't decide on one thing. Which rear bumper I should get. Dave told me there is a USDM spec on in which I wouldn't have to remove the rear bar. Does anyone know how much difference there is between them?

If you have pics please post.

So has anyone heard of the USDM spec one?

As far as I know it is almost the same except you dont have to cut off the the 2 bumps by your rear plate. I could be wrong. Why dont you PM Dave for clarification.

mines a jdm one, looks a lil different, i think better.

If for safety & less work, usdm is a way to go...

If for look & have money to pay a little more work on the reinforcement bar jdm is better.... I would pick jdm but I never seen one....where?

oops now I see one...yes jdm is better!!

The Techsport is JDM I believe, the Ken Style Rear we have a USDM and JDM.

Thanks Dave. I just asked for another quote with the Ken Style U.S. Rear. I hope they don't get tired of me over at Accolade.

That bumper being so short reminds me of the early 90's Jetta rear..... A little too flat for my taste... I like it to have alittle cush back there on the rear .... of the car.

I personally prefer the look of the JDM, if someone can post images of the USDM we could all see the difference.. there is quite a size change, USDM ken rear comes out quite a bit.

the USDM I believe comes out a little farther than the stock piece if I am not mistaken.

About how much farther?

far enough to clear the crash bar... i think you just need to remove the little plate that has 18 welds.... easy to do it you have a good air compressor and a nice cut off wheel..... ( i cut off the edge that suck out then used a crowbar to bend it and broke the bottoms welds off.... )

whatever country you're in.

just a pic of the rear bar incase anyones interested how far they stick out.
