Originally I had started with the polyurethane knock off kit on ebay, had nothing but issues with it, fitting, expanding in sun, and generally embarassing me while i was driving. So in the last 2 years I have been saving up and am finally done with the Authentic Mazdaspeed kit.

Nice, now you have to save for the wing and Mazdaspeed wheels, coil overs, exhaust, clutch, flywheel, CF kit, etc., etc.

Congrats man, we all learn the hard way especially me

Yeah, I wanna get some spacers just not sure where to get them. i'll do a search on that. I want some slotted rotors next and tomorrow i have to go have my agency power exhaust re-fitted so it doesn't melt the rear bumper, it was having some issues fitting just right.

mikeferrell

I was so mad at myself for buying a knock off kit. I thought i'd save money and it'd look just as good. very bad mistake

ZumnRx8

Lool, yup, don't get spacers, just get some wheels even replicas some good ENKEIS or ROTAS, even Brand name ina stock size is affordable. And a drop.

Where did you acquire said kit, I have been looking for one?

ZumnRx8

O in a good offset of course but that's ur options out there. For some reason the Tiens are not doing their job in the picture.

Needs the wing then your set. I want this look except the rear bumper (I like my rear fog light) looks excellent by the way. Just makes me want to save up for the kit more myself

mikeferrell

I bought the kit on 3 different websites, no one seemed to have any in stock. So i just emailed a ton of different mazda dealers asking if they had them in stock and found 3 different sites. I wonder if mazda has stopped making these pieces?

Figs

Yea apparently they've stopped, where did you get the bumper at speaking of which. I was checking pricing and 1200 is pretty high for a primered one

very nice! i second the spacers and a drop. spacers being temporary of course. i have spacers on my car and they look great, especially with a nice drop. 25mm would be the way to go.

Looking nice. Did you get them painted or already painted? How much was it to paint if you did paint it.

Looks good but would look even better with the mazdaspeed spoiler.

I have some very lightly used racing brake rotors for sale.

Car looks kit, take care of it, you won't be able to replace it.

Hey that's how I have my plate fastened also but am having problems keeping it like that. The wind has weakened the fasteners over time and now it comes off anytime I'm on the highway.

I have to figure out a way to keep the grill attached. See our plates aren't suppose to go there so it applies force to the grill which in return loosens those fasteners...totally sucks!
