Mazdaspeed Front Bumper

So I installed my Mazdaspeed Replica front bumper today. The fitment is decent. Terrible on the sides (near the corners) so I might have a body shop do it sometime soon.

Anyway, all I have is the front bumper, on an H&R spring drop, which is a little over 1.5 inches. So it looks sick, but I think the bumper looks a little misplaced without sideskirts. I can't really decide though. I'll post pics tomorrow in the daylight.

questions, comments

You're right. It does look empty without sideskirts. The stock body doesn't flow too well with just an aftermarket front bumper.

How did you connect the bottom front part to the under part of the car? I have a couple replicas and they don't reach the rubber that the oem bumper attaches to.

I agree. So, now I have to spend even more $$$ and find some side skirts for it. Oh well.

Haha i know my bad. K I NEED SOME ADVICE.

Fiberglass side skirts for local craigs list sketchy dude, unpainted for $90
Urethane side skirts painted TiGrey (so i'd have to repaint) great fitment for $200+shipping.
