I'm not sure everyone is on the same page here. According to these 2 threads, it is possible to unscrew the detonator from a 1-stage JDM airbag and swap the cover onto your 2-stage USDM airbag. I don't think unscrewing a part on the back of the assembly would affect the appearance of the cover. I have seen many 86 airbags installed on an FR-S that look completely factory.
I am going to reach out to Nigel JDM parts and see if they can ship them somehow. That link in the thread is dead but maybe they can still get them. I was just really hoping someone knew of a way to get a used one in the US.
