thanks ^ ^....i believe it is lower than the appearance package.. i compared pictures.. but i haven't done a real life comparison.. i picked the lip from a club member.. he bought it but didn't want to put it on.. i got it for a decent price and i had to get it painted

i did it myself.. you don't need a shop to do it.. it's just four screws and there are four sections of double sided tape already on the lip.. it's VERy easy to install

yea.. still debating on mazdaspeed side or oem splash guards in the front and oem side aeroflares.. leaning towards the second one...

depends if you have a shop that will do it for a decent price.. shipping it painted could be risky if there are any damages that occur during shipping.. if small damages happen on the unpainted.. you could always fix it before painting.. all preference ^ ^

I was just asking cause I ordered one from Lazi back in November but I'm still waiting for it to arrive. I picked up the stock sides and muds from forum member 4 years to supercharge really cheap. I am waiting on the lip to install everything. I did install a GTO wing while I'm waiting......fits pretty good.

Hey you can get the rotary accents off ebay really cheap. It will make the front bumper stand out a bit more. I won a set for $57. Not the original equipment but they fit just fine.

I paid $220 for the lip and $65 for shipping. Keep in mind I ordered mine when he was having the sale. I saw a pair of red side on ebay about two days ago. I'll check for you right now.

yes from what i understand jondemand doesn't stock and imports when there are orders.. they have good relations with many of the companies.. such as rmagic.. so your pretty much guaranteed the best price and best price on shipping.. and caaahlvin im not sure how much shipping is... and 1stgen i had a rotary accent before but some punk thought it was funny to take it off.. they also broke my fender strakes.. now they turn.. i ordered a new set of accents and im going to find a way to make the fender strakes stay put

Could not find the sides...guess someone bought them. Here are some muds. I got the front muds and sides from 4 years to supercharge for $225 shipped. When I went to order the rears from the dlr they told me $80. I thought that was steep but I bought them anyway. The fronts cost more so if you can watch ebay from time to time you might get lucky. Oh yeah the sides are $234 a piece but atleast you don't have to paint them.
