Default Amuse R1 bumper

Most likely going with this bumper, but I have a few questions.
First, how is the fitment? Any modifcation required to fit to stock AP1?
Secondly, I also am getting the J's Racing intake soon after this bumper. Will the snorkel still be in the way of oncoming air as with the stock bumper, and, will any modfications be needed to the bumper to fit this intake?
Thanks, and feel free to post any pics of this bumper, as I've only found about 4 different cars with it

fitment varies from bumper to bumper, but they usually fit very good with minimal tweaking. some may require no tweaking at all.

the j's intake will fit, you don't have to modify it believe.

That's not exactly true.

I guess in the end, it really depends on how much of a perfectionist you are.

Mine took a little work, but overall I pleased with the fitment.

What's the fastest way to get one of these R1 bumpers? Don't really want to wait 3 months . . .

I think Bulletproof would be your best bet. That's where I plan on getting mine in a couple months after I get my coilovers.
