I love the MazdaSpeed nose - great work Will.

Look forward to having a closer look at your car at the Nats.

My MS suspension is getting installed today.

Hey Will, how did you mount your fog lights? Does the MS nose have mounting points for the stock fittings or did you do it some other way?

You have to buy some brackets in addition to the nose (I got it all through japanparts) to enable the fogs to be fitted. That meant cutting mesh and the black inserts behind the mesh, to fit the brackets, plus drilling holes in the MS nose to fix the brackets themselves.

The instructions are very clear in spite of being in Japanese, but cutting and drilling brand new, beautifully painted bits was a bit harrowing!

I didn't bother to keep a photo record of it all - I'm sure someone more **** than me has done that already somewhere
