    When it comes to modification in general:

    PhDM = may kabayo sa hood ng cars
    JDM = mostly black headlights, one-piece headlights, black side molding, amber corner lights
    EuDM = clear corners, clear headlights
    USDM = amber and red combinations

    I think the Euro EG hatchback looked similar to the JDM model.

    JDM version

    Looks like the biggest difference is the rear plate number provision(lower half of the clam back)

    USDM model

    (amber reflector on front signal lights)

    The local version looks almost like the JDM version... just change the rims and add a rear wiper if yours doesn't have one.

    I think the euro version has a bigger different because of the rear panel designed for the longer euro plates, but i'm not sure if the taller RP plates will fit.

    minimal lang pala ang difference.
    for a moment, i thought there's no difference at all...but yeah, the size for the plate provision seems to be noticeable...hmmm...can you tell the version based on the lamps only? would it be correct if you say this version has this kind of corner lamp while this one has the other variant...like the one i've read somewhere that JDM lamps aren't made of glass...dunno if it's true or just BS. would it affect the type of version if i place a projector head lamp instead of the standard lamps?





    ...so this is why old people encourage young people to play spot-the-difference!

    umzzzzz, re-read my previous post at yun ang sundan mong mods. I think it doesnt make sense to follow the STOCK look of each domestic marker if you are modding. Most JDM wheels are Black and or Bronze. EuDM is multi-spoke wheels. USDM are, well, hubcaps, nyahahaha.

    let me reitarate that while USDM have corner amber signal light, they are not amber as a whole. In fact, the amber color is just a little part of the lamp.

    what a JDM should look like:

    USDM would look like this:

    mod enthusiasts doesnt look or care about where the license plate is, because the difference in that area is really minimal. Kaya parts like thin side molding, black lip, amber corner lamp in addition to fender lamp, window visor, duckbill as opposed to spoiler.

    I think the only model with unique front signal lights is the USDM model.
    It has mandatory amber reflectors.
    Here's the colored pic...


    I'm not sure about the JDM version, but the USDM version has the single strut(floating) headrests...

PHDM, JDM, EuDM, USDM...anu tohhh?!?
