R-Magic lip kit install questions

Is the rear like the MS rear where you have to cut the bumper to install? Is this something the average do it yourself person could accomplish or is it better to take it to a pro?

Can the sides be easily installed or should a pro do it?

Can the front lip install over the OEM appearance lip?

mazdaparts.com sells the painted kit for $1945.00. Is that a good price? Anyone know if the parts come painted from R-Magic or is it done by mazdaparts.com?

Appreciate any feedback you guys may have.

i believe u need to remove the oem appearance lip.. as for the sideskirts its tough to say cause i dont know ur mechanical abilities but the sides arent that hard to do if u have general knowledge on installing basic mods.... just take ur time on the skirts thats my .02cents on that and 1900 for a PAINTED lip kit is a decent price

i think it's just like mine
if you have the appearance lip, remove it.
the plastic piece will be your guide, just slip it on
and Wah La! there should be bolts for the side and double sided tape for insurance

sorry for thread jacking, but can you install the r magic front lip if you have the grill trim ring? because the grill trim can't be install with the stock front lip.

Umm, there shouldn't be any cutting involved. The only things you have to do is the remove the plastic pieces on the OEM bumpers, and attache the R Magic kit on it. Hopefully that answers your question..
