mazda speed bumper

so, i may be getting an rx8 here soon, so i was wondering. how is it that everyone has a mazda speed front bumper i'm gussing. it looks really nice. are all these people driving mazda speeds, or just getting the bumpers? or is this some sort of dealership thing? i'm in no real hurry for a reply, just whenever you are cool to answer a question

-thanks

there is no MS RX-8 in the united states (I assume that's where you're from).

The dealer sells the MS hardware, including body kit. Just buy and install.

Most of it just adds weight to the car, but the front bumper gives you better cooling due to the way it channel's air and enlarges the oil cooler opening.

many poeple on this forum run the replica MS kit. As much as possible, go with the real deal, but if you must go with a replica be careful what you choose. Many of the replicas out there fit like shyt. And don't ask which ones fit the best cause i don't know.. =)

My authentic MS kit gave me 15hp. I hear the fake ones only give 14.5hp.

most dealers will charge you msrp. check the online mazda dealers like trussville and rosenthal. You can usually save several hundred bucks, plus you can even have them deliver it to your local dealer for install if you want.

yeah order online if you dont wanna get ripped off by the dealer. you can just ask lazi though. he runs the JonDemand vendor section and promises to beat any online price.

try here for prices: https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...2&page=1&pp=15
