Maybe some outdoor daytime pics would be better but that won't be until the weekend.

BTW, did u close my other thread on the 'Tailgate Decoration'? Just curious as to why it was moved/closed.
actually no it doesn't match up even remotely close to the Mugen piece.

In this pic: You'll notice that the garnish sits flush with the top of the rear bumper.

Now in THIS pic:

You'll see the huge gap between where the garnish ends and the bumper begins (along with a lot of dirt) :P

Just to clarify as I wasn't clear enough in my original post, the piece that I'm talking about is the chrome piece under the H emblem!

I'll through a big hint your way. The yellow Fit has a JDM rear bumper, Yuf has a USDM bumper. The USDM bumper is thicker than the JDM one. That's why his has a big gap.
