Default How to tell the difference between Jap and UK Bugeye STI???

Anybody know how to tell the differenc between a UK and Jap car, it's a 52 plate, Bugeye STi.
The car is a write off and has no log book, so can't tell by date of registration.

Chassis number possibly??? or any other visual difference's

A JDM Chassis code will be something like this
GDB-****** (6 numbers)
A UK STi has more numbers, 7 I think.

JDM model should also have HID lights, rear wiper, front titanium strut brace, 2 buttons for the water spray (manual and auto), tinted rear windows.
Plus loads more power.
