Buy OEM. Most of the aftermarket kits fit for **** unless you really feel like doing a lot of work or paying for one hell of an expensive one.

@ Bevcool

Actually, not all bumpers are made equal, we do have lots of aftermarket options that are manufactured to be as good as OE components: https://www.carid.com/mazda-rx-8-front-bumpers/

Tell me the model year of your RX8 and I will check on the available options for you.

I think I should go with OEM due to fitment issue with aftermarket bumpers.

I did look at the website but it is missing a piece on the bottom. The year of the car is 07.
