Ya'll are crazy for meets, eh? We've got plenty of time and it's just too damn cold for me right now to hang out outside. That and the long drive for myself. Warm days will be upon us soon enough and we can have tons of meets and events. Don't forget to check out the NEPOC section of mazdas247.com for my listings.
Cheers!

Hey locals,
I have a 2004 SS with 30K, garaged for the winter, never driven in the rain/snow.
Anyway -- anyone have an idea of the potential round trip cost for the Mazda speed front, sides, and rear body kit installed?
Anyone here have that setup. Did you have it done or DIY?
Cheers,

Since the fitment is perfect, you can install it yourself. Front just snaps on like the stock bumper, the side sills require some drilling of holes on the sides and the rear bumper defuser requires cutting off the bottom half of the plastic part of the bumper. See this page for installation instructions. Since there is no painting involved, it probably would be a fairly low cost to install all the parts. Heck, if you don't feel comfortable drilling anything, you can do the front bumper yourself and then only pay for sides & rear install.

The authentic Mazdaspeed front and sides fit perfectly. Also come prepainted in many colors. Onlinemazdaparts.com has SS prepainted front/side/rear for $2624, probably with some additional shipping.

Thats not a bad price. Personally, I'd rather go with FEED (Fujita Engineering) parts and all. Those guys really R&D their stuff, and are the top rivals of RE Amimeya afterall.
