Yeah, this is probably the latest replica that has shallow openings so that the center beam is not required to be removed.
The earlier replica is a 100% copied from the original J"s racing mold. If you look at the comparison pictures above you will notice this latest replica is not as deep as...
Yes, the grill will collapse if you cut the center beam in the bumper cover, so keep that and I'll paint it black instead to hide the center beam. Here is how it looks like on another car with the similar grill by keeping the center support beam.
No, because what @ATM has on his vehicle is...
Because they thought nobody can tell the difference, or the seller thought it's the same thing.
This one, however, is a 100% copied from the J's Racing mold.

Whichever it is, both fit like craps.
I'll say the AM one is "inspired" by the J's Racing. There are a lot of differences namely the grill on J's Racing is a lot deeper into the intercooler, which is the reason that you have to remove the center support beam in the bumper cover to install the J's Racing Grill. Then the opening on...
No doubt the best color that showcases the bodyline. What wheels are those? Are these stock wheels?
Have you ever thought about having the splash guards painted in glossy black? That will tie up everything.
The J's Racing style one is a cold copied version, but the fitment is crappier than J"s racing.
Here's the one that look like the J's racing. The opening on the J's Racing is a lot deeper than the AM.
You can remove the emblem, but there is no base for the emblem to sit on if you were to put it on the J's Racing grill.
You need that base or shroud for the emblem to be attached on.
Someone is selling the Sport lip and center grill.

What I was saying is leave the honey comb unpainted, and only have those yellow highlighted areas, namely the entire diffuser and reflector shrouds, painted in gloss black. This should tie up everything.
I feel you, and I'll have the lower diffuser painted gloss black to match as well even for sedan.
Since the rear diffuser is a separate piece, you can have it painted gloss black to tie up everything like the Sport. For the Coupe, I'll paint everything on the diffuser and rear garnishes in...
Theoretically the ikon one should fit the oem upper mesh, but since aftermarket parts are made from inferior PP materials so we don't know how long it will last. These aftermarket body parts are usually made in poor PP materials that tend to crack over short period of time. The oem one is...
