MazdaSpeed Front Bumper Black center piece
 
I hit a piece of tire on the highway and cracked my MazdaSpeed bumper along the black center piece/bar that goes on the center grill. I was able to repair my bumper but the center upper piece fell off somewhere on the highway. I tried calling the dealer but they all told me this is a discontinued bumper and even if its not discontinued they don't have a part number for that piece. Any suggestion where I can find one, or if anyone here might have an extra one they can sell me? I wouldn't mind building one as well if theirs a DIY instruction somewhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I seen damaged repairable authentic MS bumper going for $300-$500, and the center piece is sometime included. So I think $100 is a fair price for the center add on.

My friend can pretty much mold anything with carbon fiber. So if I get my hands on one of these center add on , I plan on making a carbon fiber one since they're so hard to come by. If it comes out looking decent, I''ll hook you guys up too. But first thing first, please let me know if you or someone you know got an extra one.

ive talked about vacuuming forming the piece. It would take under 3 minutes and come out with amazing results.

if you make a decent replica I'd definately be interested in paying a fair amount for a spare, just in case.

I'll be your first customer if you decide to make one. :D:
