Hey guys, i was wondering, what's the difference in the accord euro r front bumper and the usdm tsx bumper? I noticed that all the cars with the euro r lip kit have fog lights and the bumper seems to be different from the stock tsx bumper? What all would i need for it to look like the Euro R aside from the JDM headlights, grille? Also, i heard there is also a different stock bumper for the JDM accord, i saw a pic of a white one on this board somewhere. Is that true?

they r different .. but it's nthing abt the euroR kit and foglights .. ~
they r add on onto the stock JDM/USDM bumpers .. ~
the USDM TSX bumper has some minor differences to meet the more restric regulations in North America .. ~ which cause the minor fitment problem on JDM grill on USDM bumper... ~
in order to look like an EuroR besides the headlights and grill .. ~ u just need a set of euroR kit + foglights just like wut i did .. ~ as u can see from the pics .. ~ i still have the stock bumper/grill ... ~

thanx andynolife, I want the same look you have actually. The only thing i dont get is the area around your foglights is all silver, like both air ducts in the bumper for the fogs is all silver with the fogs inside. Is that how the Euro R fog lights come? Or did u have to paint them afterwards? I'm comparing it to the pic of the silver tsx at the top on the tsxclub.com banner btw.

The lip kit is what does it. The piece is bigger to cover that area vs the USDM one which does not. It's all one molded piece on the JDM version.

it's part of the euroR lip kit ..~ so u just need to remove the stock foglight cover and plug the euroR fit on with the JDM foglights .. then u will get the same look as mind .. :D

hahaha...... Andy is showing off his car again.....haha....

but ya, Andy is the JDM guy..... just simplify....all you need is Euro R kit, Euro R grille, JDM foggies......and you are done......

If you want more hardcore, get the JDM headlights and the painted hood trim???...

I will post some pics of my JDM headlights this weekend. My last final is tomorrow and I can finally install the JDM headlights.

Thanx guys for the info. I'm a JDM junkie, i just got my TSX two weeks ago and already feel the need to mod it. I used to have a 2001 celica gts and it had a host of JDM goodies on it.
Colsticehockey- I actually have the same rims you have but in 18's on my celica. They also had the gunmetal finish. Unfortunately, they are a different bolt pattern so i have to sell them.

Well, the JDM headlights are aimed towards the left correct? I don't want to be blinding on coming traffic so this reason keeps me from ordering a set.

Damn, I was hoping they were. One more question, the Euro-R fog lights, would they still fit with the USDM OEM kit? Anyone here with that setup?

it will fit .. ~ the OEM kit doesn't have a foglight housing like the EuroR kit does .. ~
that part is empty .. therefore u will have no problems with OEM kit .. but then there will be no point for a JDM foglight+ OEM kit combination .. ~ cuz the only reason u puchase it is to match with the EuroR kit ..
