Just putting it out there for consideration...what about the inner fender liners and the engine undercover? They may or may not line up exactly to the 2017 bumper.

Smart and good for pointing out. You're probably right that they may not line up but those are minor details compared to actual headlamp shape lining up to the bumper and fenders.

I found it initially and I pointed him to where after.

You are welcome.

Do you mind sharing where did you buy the JDM headlights? Also if this info its accurate, the harness and wiring fits correctly with the new lights? Or did you make some mods? Thanks in advance.

Those triple beams are stellar! I want those bad. But if its really $2G a pop. That's a lot of dow. I have a 2017. I googled everywhere and can't seem to find them anywhere.

The headlamp in the gray vehicle is different from the one in the blue vehicle. Maybe the gray vehicle is not an f-sport or might even be a GS?
