Think of it this way, if you get the Mazdaspeed kit, it will fit (no extra costs there), you don't have to paint it (it will come all ready painted, no extra cost there) and you can install it yourself (again, you don't have to pay the body shop).

Believe me, if you cheap out you will reget it, it's only worth doing if you can do it right, otherwise, you're just following the "tuning" fad and ruining a nice car.

there are a few vendors on here that i am sure can work out a nice price for you on either the mazdaspeed or the genuine kits.....another kit you might want to think of is kenstyle....they are sold in japan at dealers as well because they have just about as good a fit as MS....

Couldnt find the MS vendors on here but I found the kenstyle and over 2 thousand for an unpainted kit without shipping is a little to much

plus the Kenstyle IMHO is *** ugly...
Mazdatrix can get the MS kit for you, Mazmart can get it for you, as well as a few others ordered JDM

OMG the front bumper alone is 1200 dollars....I know it comes painted but like I said earlier I can do the paintwork myself, so as far as legit kits go im gonna have to say im leaning towards buddy club even though you have to remove those peices

Ok the kit is pretty far off on the sidemarkers but a dremel tool should be able to fix it, other than that there arent really any problems....ill post pics soon with it unpainted and installed
