CT Mazpeesd Front Bumper

Hi there, I am new here and I am desperate looking for a genuine mazdapeed front bumper velocity red. If you guys could help me find it that would a great help, since I have been to the dealer down here in CT and they told me that they don't make it anymore so thanks already

your going to have to wait till a member on here sells it, or you can get a good replica.

Mazda does NOT sell the bumper in Velocity Red anymore. It has been discontinued.

They have 30 something in Primer (meaning no color). and a few other colors left.

So your choice is either wait for someone to sell it(very unlikely) or buy a primer one and paint it by some shop.

I'm in the same boat as you op and you just have to have your dealer order you the primed one.

You cannot order directly from mazdausa, they tell you to go to a dealer after you select color. When you go ask a dealer you are told that its not availiable (the color that you selected, or at least in my case VR), i then called MNAO and was told they have 30 some left in the primer, but none in the color, and gave me a part number for that to take to a dealer (a mazdaspeed certified one to be more specific)

I just cracked my VR MS bumper a few months back. Its repairable but I think i am going to pick up a primer one before they are all gone, just in case.

$50 for shipping?

No way no how, shipping for an item that size is $250-$300 depending on the location that it needs to go to.

I have sold quite a few of these and shipping them is no fun at all...the box they ship in are too small and not enough packing. The corner marker holders always crack in shipment.

As far as I remember that is how much they charge for shipping the bumper

But yea the box it came with barely fits the bumper, but I was lucky all 3 times that I brought this bumper came ok(the first one was damaged one and I got it for cheap)

lol, too bad im not near anywhere that sells them... well if you still want to hook me up tell me how much lol.

My plan as of now is to save up some spending money and this spring (whenever the snow is gone, may be as late as june) have the minneapolis dealer order me one, and drive down there and pick it up. Im going to run with my cracked stock bumper for the remainder of the winter.

i got mine 2 or 3 years ago and shipping was $50 via greyhound from florida all the way here to california. excellent packaging as well. i dont remember exactly whom i bought it from though, but it was from a dealer. i paid 1355 shipped in WB color.

I just dropped my bumper off for repaint again

3rd time within 12 months

when you run this bumper be sure to be very careful of everything in the road... I mean everything!

I also highly recommend a clear bra... there is very little flex i the MS bumper itself so it tends to chip fairly easy.

you can order them from mazda if your a member of mazda speed, so go hit the track and keep your two different track day slips, then sign up and order it.

I rather stay with my normal bumper with appearance lip -- I hear way 2 many stories of cracks and chips and repaints for me to get one.
