It's the factory AP1 rear cut.

ASM has holes that are smaller and a single exhaust exit

oh, okay. Thanks. I was wondering what are the practical applications of having openings in the rear bumper? rear brake cooling and heat dissipation? Internal Aerodynamics? Because the asm, j's racing type s, and many other s2000 aftermarket bumpers have these outlets

The rear vents decrease drag by releasing the air that gets trapped in the rear bumper at high speeds. But like most street cars, its just to look different

I believe the theory is that the rear bumper acts like a parachute. The holes are there to aleveate drag ... I saw a topic on here once that covered this.
