I absolutely love the Euro lip look on the prefacelift bumper. However, since it is almost impossible, it seems, to actually get a Euro OEM lip, I'm thinking about going another way. If I was to buy a JDM SS-III front bumper does it just fit right on to the prefacelift front? Thanks

They're never "fused on..." The bumper and splitters are separate units. The splitters fit over the bumper and fenders, so molding or "fusing" them will need to be done by you or a body shop, which will make the bumper a pain to remove for any reason. The bumper is simply a facelift bumper that can be found on any '96+ bumper in the States.
