The only place to get MS locally is through your dealership, and they will still have to order it.

What is "reasonable"? Might you indulge me with figures?

Ahhh.. ok. I'd like to have those side skirts for starters.

mazdaspeed wheels are great, but you can probably find some lighter ones for less $$$.

Oh definately. I didn't mean Mazdaspeed wheels.

I was thinking about those Enkis like what Team has.

How much was the front bumper? Also would you mind giving a fellow DFW winning blue owner a ride in your car? I want to see what the MS shocks feel like before I get the shocks/springs and swaybars. Also wouldn't mind hearing what the MS exhaust sounds like too.

i dont have the sways yet. but sure. the front was 1275 plus tax. Talk to Tom. You feel the springs and shocks from behind the wheel better, but good luck getting me to let you drive. I really want the coil overs.

If your looking for a red ms front vivid racing had one for $800. Not a bad price.

1275 is actually a pretty fair price. i got the fog light brackets for 65 and the side skirts for 700. Hey big0 did you put the skirts on or have someone do it. I'm scared to drill and that I won't get it flush. I'm trying to get the MS CAI in to install at the same time i have the nose off.

A few people at our last install party put in my sides.
If you follow the templates, you shouldnt have a problem installing them correctly.
