It fit exactly the same way as the OEM bumper. You only have to slightly trim the side of the foam part in the front.

One month I try to make the group buy but still no answer from the forum administrator. I make approximatly 10 request but still no answer. I wrote a post on the group buy if someone could help... So I still want to do a group buy and still working to do so, but no answer to about 10 message.

If someone could help, let me know.

I realise it must be frustrating.

If you can't do a group buy, let's do it 'offline' - take PM's for interest, then get the interested people to come up with a deposit before you make 'em.
This worked for the guy who makes subwoofer boxes that fit the trunk (4080 boxes are famous)

Don't post a price on here and you should be OK.

I'm in for front #1!

PM me a rough price....

Thanks for your answer Stealth. For the moment, I prefer to respect forum rules so I will wait maybe 2 more weeks and will continue to send email to the administrator.

After that, if still no answer, I will probably follow your advise.

Thanks again.

Hmm.. this is what Mazda should of done for a refresh of the 8 instead of umm.. yeah.. what we got. If I didnt have the Kenstyle front I'd be interested in this. Looks very well done.

Jedi54: When we remove the corners and the aluminum V in the front, it looks less busy.

Thank you Clavius for your comments, highly appreciated.

I am going to de a group buy (waiting for approval). In the mean time, if interested, send me a PM to get the group buy information (subject to change depending on the approval). I will offer group rebate so the more, the merrier...

Note that it is possible to remove the integrated corner for few more USD.

I like it

To me, the design resembles a cross between the original RX-8 nose, the original Mazdaspeed nose, and the Porsche Cayenne nose. I like the design, and think the various influences came together nicely.

Is the intention to produce it in FRP, or in something more flexible, such as polyurethane? I like the design; but my commuting is eating my modification budget (500 miles a week in an 8 is not the cheapest option )

Not a bad look, its a bit too "open" for my liking, but for a DIY creation its nice.
