AutoExe New Front Bumper (SE-03C) Groupbuy
 

Mazmart is proud to announce a groupbuy for the sharpest looking bumper currently offered on the market for the RX8. The SE-03C is a leap ahead of anything offered today to modify the visual appearance of your RX8. This bumper freshens the look of the 04-08 model & enhances the looks of the '09. The groupbuy pricing will be set at $775, & must have a minimum of 10 members to take place. The ending date will be set for November 30th. Payment through Paypal only (Do not purchase off of our website). Shipping is additional, & there will be a 30-60 day wait at the end of the groubuy before arrival to our store. Shipments to customers will be immediately after that. For anyone interested in the fogs, those can also be supplied at an additional cost.

SWEEEEEETTTTNESSSS :)

Is 775 includes shipping or ?

and does the price includes the fog light ?

thx :)

looks good. good price too.

i guess i need to look at the '09 side by side, but it looks like it's a stock '09. i have an '04, but i'm not sure i want my '04 to look like an '09. i don't see the difference, maybe the bottom flare out is more exaggerated? hmm.

side question: does it come w/ the fog lights? i don't really like them (the black housing and under-bar part), wondering if they would need to be removed.

sorry - so is that whole black part not there, including that under-bar part? or the just clear housing is extra? i'm picturing like the ms deal, the whole fog light housing is extra. if so i'm just curious what this bumper looks like w/o that entire area...HUGE openings :)

Paul, what about the fog lights? Cost of shipping to Toronto (l6h5w4)?

The Foglamp kit is not included with the bumper. As you can see, it will have a nice sized opening without it :yesnod: .

Interested too...shipping to Canada? Pricing on the fogs?

How's your pricing on MS sideskirts+rear bumper+spoiler if bought with this?

Here's an image of the fog in a Mazda diagram. When the fog is removed, it's an open space welcoming air.

Paul.

Looks great... is the price shipped? What material is it made of? Do you have any pictures without the foglights?

So the savings is $10 with the group buy?

The price of the bumper is $775 before shipping. The foglamps are normally $250 per side from us versus $378 per side from Mazda. We will do the lamps at $400 for the pair with the purchase of the bumper cover. Thanks.

Sheldon.

That is correct. It is $10 less than what is already the cheapest price in the US. We posted our price of $800 prior to other AutoExe ditributors realizing that it even existed. Our competitors quickly posted prices that we beat by reducing to $785. This is far from profitable and truly done to prove that we will supply the best for the least. $775 is the groupbuy price that we are pleased to be able to offer the fine folks on this forum. :)

And yes, prior to shipping.

Paul.

Thanks. Sorry if my post came off wrong :)

Not at all. Excellent question that we just needed to clarify again. If you're wondering, so are others. We appreciate good questions.

Paul.

Thanks for clarifying. Would really like to see a photo without the fogs installed. Any answer re: cost of shipping to Toronto?

Nice bumper Paul

So who took the dumb test?

me too. i don't like those fogs, i'd have to see it w/o them. i think they would look good, but not worth $800 w/o knowing for sure.

EDIT: i guess post #6 kind of hints toward how big the opening is, but i'd still like to see w/o it.

EDIT 2: is that gray part going down the outside-side of the opening part of the foglight support? it doesn't look like it is from the pic in post #8, but i guess it is part of the fog bracket...?

Here is an image link to the AE bumper on an 8 without the fogs, looks tons better actually. The pic isn't the exact same model of AE bumper, but you can see the size of the holes.

^^ I think that is the old autoexe bumper..isn't it?

No this is SE-03C. Below are the two previous front bumpers.

SE-03

Is there anywhere with more pics of the SE-03C? I'd like to see it without fogs if possible, and definitely some full body pictures so we have a better view of how it will look overall.

hmm ... so total gonna be over 1100.

I really dont like those fogs. but without those fogs, I might as well get the MS bumper again -_-

Gimme some time to think ...

the bumper looks better on the 1st gen. imo

yeah, I think its better too, but still want more pics to get a better idea

Do these come painted? I've always liked the SE-03 as one of my top three bodykits for the 8. Very clean IMHO.

^ No, unpainted

Here's a rough mock-up of front without fog lights. I don't have photoshop but did the best I could with powerpoint. Looks pretty good without fogs.

Nice work.

That is correct. They do come unpainted, & do have to be prepped & painted.

Do you know how much prep is involved? Lots of sanding or is it minor?

Very minor to almost no sanding.

Sheldon.

Do you guys just have the SE-03C front available or do you also have the back? If so how much? Are you guys going to do a package deal for front and back anytime?

We can supply the front, rear, hood & the exhaust :) .

Sheldon.

Can you quote me a price on all of that. Individually as well as each piece separately. Also do you know how much the spoiler and sideskirts in these pics are and do you also have them available? Also how much plus or minus horsepower does the exchaust system do?

You have been PMed with pricing. Thanks.

Sheldon.

Can i also get the same pricing pm'd to me, shipped to Canada (L6T 1H7), many thanks!

This is what the stock bumper of the rx8 should have looked like.

+1 I agree.

This is the Mazda front bumper to have.

Here is my lousy attempt at taking out the fog lights... It gives the general idea I think. This is the first bumper cover that I have really liked.

Not much of a group buy discount (10 bucks) not even worth the hassle IMO

Which is why this offer is over. Thank you, please come again.

Paul.

Well don't get me wrong I'm not a group buy hater. How many people would it have to take to get a signifigant amount that attracts buyers, you make a profit, and everyone be happy at the end of the day on something like the front bumper?

The lower lip makes it look like the car has a mustache-less beard...

The last individual AutoExe item I sold for $600 cost me $1100 in total after shipping and customs (Totally my fault). What do I do at that point? The customer must be satisfied.

This game, even when done properly, is not profitable on my end. I've offered the cheapest price in North America and then reduced it again. There's nothing else I can do.

Thanks for the interest expressed by those who sincerely offered it.

Paul.
