i like this bumper. but at the same time, i think this bumper looks really similar to the MS front bumper. the price for this bumper is expensive isn't it? plus you'd have to get it fitted and painted.

I think it look pretty good. not my absolute favourite though. but good god, silver mesh grill on a BB is a bad call. otherwise a decent looking kit

It is a hot bodykit, but I'm still partial to Mazdaspeed.
