If your going to do something.....do it right.
You can tell the difference between the two easly. The JDM ones have a actual curve to the lens in the circles to give them a more rounded look when lit. You may not see this when the car is driving 50ft in front of you, but if the car is parked and im checking out these kewl J-spec tail lights, I'm gonna know whether or not this person is into the real deal or not. Why not use some real cool Ractive parts on the cars while we are at it(sarcastic voice)

I like the '99 spec lip. When installed on the stock '93 front end, a little edge sticks out below the vents (about 1/4"), and the tips extend about 1/4" into the wheel well. It's hardly noticeable until you point it out to someone...then they'll always see it.
www.rx7.com has them advertised at $189...

I don't know whose conversions you've seen but Herb Blenny's and rx7even's are very well done.

jack up the front of the car, unbolt the little 1" lip if thats what you have and there should be existing holes to bolt the lip to the bumper.
