TRD Front aero JDM vs USDM

Are these pieces exactly the same with the exception of the USDM part being VIN locked and only coming in Raven color? if so is anyone able to dig up the english instructions for the dealer installation of this piece?

Am looking into getting the JDM front and have a copy of the install directions but since it combines the unpainted, LED and non LED versions of the front, I was hoping the USDM install would be the same/very similar and get a copy of the instructions as it seems there's more drilling and stuff going on for the install compared to the trunk spoiler and side skirts

JDM version surrounds the grille and has a license plate holder.


Neither of them should require drilling. Just 3M tape and pop clips into existing holes under the bumper.

sorry forgot to specify, talking about the kouki aero kit, not the zenki model. from the pictures i've seen it doesn't look like it has the plate holder like the zenki kit. The plate holder is built into the front bumper portion for the 17+ and looking at the instruction images, the trd aero part is just the lower segment. From what i can gather from the pictures in the japanese instructions, there are 4 holes to be drilled on the bottom of the stock bumper and 1-2 holes on each side of the grille portion (this part is the part i'm not too clear about as that segment also has headers that say LED) Have attached the pic of the aero kit
