american front bumper?

Hey guys, i was just wondering if there was a difference between the american and canadian front bumpers for the AE86. My brother said that someone came by the shop and said the american bumper is slightly closer to the JDM or something. Let me know please. Thanks

There's pro's and cons about US and JDM bumpers


US bumpers
Pros: Much safer (meets US safety standards)
cons: Look ugly


JDM bumpers:
Pros: Look much better (compared to US bumpers)
Cons: Are not safe (That's why US changed them)
