Alright guys,

I put my new racing beat intake on today so i figured i would test fit my new bumper while i was at it....The new bumper allows for direct flow from the bumper into the air intake box....Hope you like the look i am going for....The bumper is not painted yet ...but it will be painted to match the car when the my new seibon hood comes in.....the bumper also has a real carbon fiber lip spoiler molded on....

here are a few pics...

 

looks good, which one is that and how much $$$

 

looks good. but please tell me u got side's and rear for it as well.

 

hey..momo...how'd you get that?..that was, what i thought, a one off that AcostaMotorsports had fabricated for their 20b RX8..

 

maker sure to put a screen in the back of the hole.

 

the bumper is made by acosta motorsports.....they make them to order.....around $750.00 plus shipping...they are made of kevlar/fiberglass or all carbon fiber....I am going to purchase mazdaspeed sides and rear for the car.....and the Seibon TS II hood....and yes I already made screens for all of the holes and the one in the bumper that will be painted black...

 

fitment is pretty good.

 

what if a bird or squirrel gets sucked in there? lol

 

Than that would suck!!!!get It!!!!Suck!!!

man i kill myself....j/k

i dont know guess i would be havin bird or squirrel that night...

 

What happens if it is raining heavily?

 

Possibly not drive it or stuff a water filter in there.

 

Don't worry about a little water, the stock airbox has drains on it. If you are running something aftermarket, you're on your own.

S

 

all he would need is a turbo and instead of attaching the manifold to the exhaust exit, just hook up some contraption to be able to hold some sausage tubing and then it's a free for all...you can drive, run **** over and make sausage...and it's already pre-heated ...

gheez i crack myself up...

 

Fitment seems to be pretty good, but the gap at where the hood meets up is that due to the bumper not being installed 100%?

 

There is a hole in your bumper.

 

i think the... rubber between the hood and bumper is taken off ... thats wut i think

 

very nice! I actually like this bumper. Too bad you don't really have anything to really make the hole functional... They have one all carbon fiber you say? Dam that must be expensive. Becareful with fiberglass though, also the fitment seem to be off a little bit on the hood line...

 

last year it sucked a rag half way in there
but I wasnt pleased with the fitment on certain cars.20b is original ms bumper

 

Am i the only one who see a gap between the front bumper and the hood???
Don't like the fitment...
Maybe you have removed the air diversion panel cause that's how a friends car looked when he removed it-for no readon though

Acosta version of the Mazdaspeed bumper...Very good if you want to make a custom ram-air effect but pointless if you already have one..

 

Dont mean to be rude.....but for those that are reading the bumper was test fitted and not even bolted down anywhere ....jst sat on the car to take a pic....the car since then has had the bumper installed for exact fitment and has exact same fitment as factory.....TEST FITMENT...KEY WORD HERE...

 

if I wanted to do that, would it be possible to make the hole ded center? I hate things that are imbalnced..

 

It is lined up with the intake right now, so it gives you a direct line to the intake box. To center it would defeat the purpose.

 

or so you assume as did the people who put it there in the first place ..

 

i was waiting for that comment, im amazed people passed that by and thought that was the final fitment you'd be driving away with.

 

that bumper looks like ***. it looks like someone shot a hole in it with a 40mm grenade. seriously
