Urethane M1 Speed
 
A piece of wood fell from a truck on the highway... I hit that piece of wood and now I need a new bumper.

I've searched and can't find anything about installing the ED M1 Speed Urethane Front Bumper.
http://www.sportcompactonly.com/Mazd...53_vy-2005.htm

Has anyone had experience installing this bumper? Does the splash shield and everything fit correctly?

Since this is urethane and not fiberglass, should fitment be better? Something I would be able to do by myself?

Thank you for any help,

lots of bad reviews from ED on this board. If you want perfect fitment, i say buy authentic. The Mazdaspeed kit IS perfect OEM fitment. There are several vendors that sell them on this forum. Check them out some time.

if you don't mind 8/10 fitment. check out Shine Autoproject

its hit and miss with them most of the time it seems to miss.....

For me, they don't fit.

Sorry for the blurry pics, but here's some pics after my body shop installed it.

It's a decent body shop, and they do great work, and he charged just $180 to paint AND install, so the fitting job must have been pretty good:

It may be hit and miss most of the time, but if you can find a body shop that just does pretty decent work I think you will be okay!

^^^ agreed with that, good body shop is important.
