Do you have the Mazdaspeed kit installed

Hi there,

I'm looking for forum members who have had a genuine or replica Mazdaspeed kit installed in Canada. I would like to solicit fit and finish impressions, and sources

I've searched many threads, and have come up with some dealers (SpoilersTO, CanZoomer), but would like some actual reports from experience. Also, Canzoomer lists their prices at around $1,300 for the full kit.. Is this an inferior quality kit?

If anyone has the Mazdaspeed kit in Canada (I've seen three already!), could you please comment on your experience with getting and installing the kit?

Thanks very much in advance,

C

I think you should ask SlowLude, who's here in Calgary. We all saw his genuine MS kit in person and it looks very nice. Great fitment. Perhaps send him a PM or maybe he'll see this post.

Ooh! Time to check PM...

Canzoomer's kit is not genuine, as genuine is much more than $1300. I guess you could go replica, but you need to paint it and get a mesh for it and its fibreglass or urethane whereas the genuine kit is made from a special type of ABS plastic.. much more durable if you plan to keep the car through Canadian winters. And the fit is questionable. The OEM is perfect fit and you can install the front yourself. The rest you could do if you're into drilling. Otherwise, I think it's totally worth going OEM...
