Got quote on Mazdaspeed kit from dealer, need input.

Sorry if this topic has been beaten to death. But yes, im well aware that MS kits have been discontinued. I tried hitting up mazda-parts and their prices seem the lowest but i've tried contacting them every week for months about it and got no replies, they don't even have a phone phone so I gave up on them.

https://www.mazda-parts.com/speed/in...b408bcce856316

So called up about 9 dealerships in Nor-Cal and one dealership quoted me $1429.11 for the front bumper (unpainted and primed) and $748 (unpainted and primed) for the side skirts. They were willing to give me 10% off the total which comes out to $1,992 for both. They said Los Angeles had about 30 unpainted bumpers and 16 side skirts left.

What do you guys think, is this a good deal for an authentic MS bumper and side skirts

yes, its a good deal

Also, check with mazdatrix. I think they have unprimered for a bit cheaper

edit: if I don't close this deal with a ms front bumper, I may need to see if your dealer can ship one to me lol

Thanks for the info but I did check mazdatrix and unfortunately it is a local pick up only and they don't ship. I live in Nor-Cal.

They're ordering them from LA for me and they said there's 30 bumpers left and 16 side skirts so the inventory is pretty good.

Not a good deal, Mazdaspeed motorsports has them at the lowest price by far but... good luck with that.

Check out Onlinemazdaparts.com they have the parts for a lower price then what you had stated above.

I'd have no problem giving them another try though! Actually, thanks for reminding me about them. I kinda forgot they existed!

Thanks for the info, will try to give these a go but from my experiences so far, a lot of the online sites are either not updating their sites so the inventory isn't current or they're not responding to my emails.

So what IS going on with mazda-parts.com? I've been trying to contact them as well through email (no phone number) about a MS rear under spoiler, and I have had no response. They have the lowest price I've found, but I won't order from them unless they reply to me. They also have the MS cold air intake for sale on their site, which I thought was no longer available. With regards to Mazdaspeed Motorsports, I'm fairly sure you need to be a member with race results to take advantage of their discounts. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

FWIW, I've ordered most of my MS stuff through JM Baggie at onlinemazdaparts.com and have had nothing short of excellent service. It's just that mazda-parts has it for around $80 less. May have to opt for good customer service over saving a buck...

Yeah let me know if you guys ever need anything, I won't ship the front bumpers anymore because I have had too many cracked bumpers in shipping with multiple carriers but I will ship the sides, rear wing, and underspoiler.

Shoot me a pm with a zipcode and I will get you a price.
