Alright, I got the bumper installed and... GOD DAMN it looks good. I removed my extraneous stickers, got the bumper paint matched and fitted at the Mazda body shop and detailed today. I will have pictures probably tomorrow as my camera is totally out of juice and the pictures deserve plenty of light. The only thing they screwed up was they forgot to install the grill/screen and the installer went home for the day, so I have to take it back on Monday to get that installed. So for the moment I'm driving around with a huge opening directly to my AEM intake cone. It doesn't seem to have any negative effect on my MAF readings though so I'm not worried about it. Thanks for the tip on this bumper 05rex8, the shop said the fitment was really good.
