Im going to assume you are talking about the post facelift version, in which case....

Euro Sport front bar = standard euro front bumper + euro R lip.

You would've saved $$$ if you went to the wreckers and try to find a euro sport wreck.

Does that also apply to the prefacelift (2005) version? Or is jdmconcept my only option besides getting it used ?

Im guessing for the prefacelift you need to change the whole front bar coz euroR kit and facelift has the same front bar just different grill

So if I buy the prefacelift euro r kit, does that mean I don't need to change the front bar?

there was no prefacelift sport model

and from looking at pictures and diagrams the pre-facelift Euro-R lip bolts on over the pre-facelift bumper

For the prefacelift euro ie model year 2003 - 2005:

No need to change the front bar.

Buy the prefacelift euro r kit and directly install it.

The main thing you need to change/modify are the foglight housing to fit the front lip.

If you don't have foglights no worries but there will be 2 empty holes.

as for the facelift - the Accord Euro Sport (2006 onwards) has the same front bar/lip as the Euro-R with a slightly different grille

Front lip from jdmconcept is like 700, crazy expensive. Like fredroops said, if your car is facelift you're better going to a wrecker. For us poor buggers with prefacelift cars, jdmconcept or an importer is the only option I think.

From import monster the front lip is around 550 not including shipping costs, import taxes (if any)

That's the oem (modulo) lip kit that you could get from Honda Australia. Similar crazy prices tho, 700 for the front lip, 450 sides, 700 rear . You could try your luck in the forums market place for a used one. They're pretty hard to come by. Is the one u in the pic up there an EZ lip? Are they all the same essentially on eBay?
