Looking for a bumper.... offers anyone? I have a Brilliant Black with a MazdaSpeed Replica bumper that absolutely sucks (or maybe body shop was just bad). Looking into any aftermarket bumper or OEM. Doesn't necessarily have to be black or even be painted. Just need to get a new front bumper as the one I have is an eye sore.

 

Hey folks, I have had several pm's from people inquiring about the MS bumper to possibly buy or trade for it. Below, I am posting what I sent to those people in case others would be interested in the same:

"Hey man, sorry for getting back to you so late. It's more me being ****. It's a polyurethane Mazdaspeed Replica front bumper by KBD. No cracks or anything. I paid $500+ plus for it shipped and then had to get it painted (eBay & PayPal receipt to prove). The shop said that there were no mounting tabs on the bumper, so they made their own. I don't know if it was them or the bumper, but they had to pull it in a bit more under the sidemarker to mount it. With pulling it in a bit more near the back of the sidemarker, it made it bulge out (on each side) near the front of the side marker. Also, in doing so, it created a gap under the headlights. The shop did not mount for fitment first and then paint. So this was all after the fact. In pulling in the corners a little more than it should have been, the paint cracked (on each side) under the sidemarkers, but not the bumper. I guess it's noticeable during daytime if you really pay attention. But not really at night. I'll get you better pictures once this hurricane clears, but the one's I have now are from the night i got them put on. Take a look at the pics and let me know what you think.

 

you guys got anything else?

thats shady.
