KY Worth Buying This MazdaSpeed kit?

I have recently came into contact with a member on here,

He is offering his mazdaspeed kit (minus the spoiler) for my oem grand touring parts. +$500 cash.

The bumper looks like it needs a lot of work (can anyone give me an estimate?)
Looks like the aero flares need some paint, and is the exhaust shroud fixable? and is the rear diffuser re-paintable on ms kit?

Is it worth it?

aside from the shop having to fix the cracks and other scratches on it. i'd say that sounds like a pretty good deal. does he have proof that it is an authentic kit?

He said there is a part number on the inside of the bumper.

He also said it's incredibly rare for replicas to have the lights and mounting brackets on msbumper.

From what i could see, the damage is not that severe. It could be fixed by a few hundred dollars. Anyway, the kit looks legit and i think its a good deal. Good luck getting it.

I'd take it dude see if he will take 400 instead of 500 that way you can put 100 toward fixing it. If you don't decide to get it rccomend me to him? :] lol
