Need big help with R3 front bumper

well guys, I just got my 2009 Mazda RX8 GT 2 days ago and I love it. I have a big problem though.

Well I love the R3 front bumper but my mazda dealership will only install the rear spoiler. I was wondering how much the front bumper would run me and where would be a good place to order it from?

also I don't know if the R3 bumper would fit my GT. I don't know how easy it is to install it but would someone be able to install it in my area?

I looked at the other threads but they just show the bumper with no other information

If anyone is willing to help I would gladly appreciate it.

Ask Mazmart (forum vendor) about pricing. Another option is to get the new AutoExec bumper.

2009 version on the left

Go with the autoexe. i bet the prices won't be that different. The r3 one is probably pretty high...


But that way, you'll at least be a little different than everyone else.

Installing a bumper is easy, there are 4 clips and a screw in each wheel well and 10 screws along the bottom. Then you just unhook it from the wheel wells and undo the foglight harnesses.

If you're going to get a new bumper I'd get the M'z one

I just fitted the AutoExe SE-03c to my 04 the car to the right and it fits like factory, my body guy was amazed how well it fit, he said he's never ever seen an aftermarket fiberglass bumper fit like that...
