I have been waiting for Grimmspeed to make one but there doesnt seem to be much interest. My friend with his 2009 loves it

 

There is an issue with lack of mounting points used by the brace for other models. A significant redesign would be necessary to avoid requiring drilling. That's probably opportunity-cost prohibitive.

 

Maybe a smaller scale fabricator could be engaged if the JDM version turns out to be different?

 

RacerX?

Well, isn't China left hand drive like the US? If so I'd think the master cylinder would be on the same side as the USDM models. We'll be able to tell more when we see pictures.

 

You are right. China is LHD like US. So the master cylinder is on the same side. The install was easy. It took only about 15-20 minutes to install. No drilling of hole is required. I will take some pictures over the weekend so you could see.

sschemelcke, here's some of the pictures I took. Based on the pictures you took, it seems USDM and JDM are the same to me.

 

There are four bolting/install point for this brace kit to the side as shown below:

Here's another angle:

The distance from the side to middle of brake master cylinder is about 8.5-9cm

It's about 10cm from the black circular (I don't know how it's called) to the end.
