MO RX8 mazda speed style front bumper

Category: Exterior - Body Parts
Price: $300
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part Fits (you may select multiples): Series I
Location (US State/Canada/Int): MO
Item Condition: New

I have a front bumper identical to this listing below.

Mazda RX 8 Speed Style Urethane Front Bumper Body Kit | eBay

I purchased this one at the same time as my suspension and it quickly became apparent I would not be able to lower the car and keep the lower front clip intact. This bumper is brand new and never been driven. I have only dry fitted the bumper. The bumper is urethane and the alignment with the hood is great. I would prefer to sell locally to STL. I do not want to hassle with shipping.

Please reply or PM me if interested. I am somewhat flexible in the pricing.

Most of these kits are $300 +shipping on ebay. It was over $400 shipped by the time I got it. So you are really looking at a 25% discount on a new bumper.

The bumper came as just the mold there were no mounting or alignment holes. I made the alignment holes for the center of the bumper, and the dry fit to hood was great so no additional trimming was required. As of today, I went through the trouble of trimming out the extra material around the side markers so fitment here is not an issue as Linux mentioned. Pictures to follow.

This kit is now ready to be prepped for paint and mounted. The kit does not come with grill inserts but would be able to be installed given the mold design. There is extra material on the back side of the bumper to allow for mounting hardware. Pictures to follow.

The bumper is approx 2" lower and given my spring issues mentioned in a previous thread my daily driving will not allow me to keep this bumper looking nice. The pictures I am including will hopefully show that I am not trying to pass on a failed ebay project. I do not have to sell so I am not looking to get low balled. Given the extra time I have invested in the bumper fitment I am less flexible on the price, but the good news is you have a bumper that is that much closer to driving.

I am looking free up additional moneys for my second amendment freedoms while they still exist. Lastly never mind the baby wheels and tires in the picture. These are the winter shoes that get me through the daily winter drive...who needs awd?!

He said he was flexible with the price. If it fits well at all it would be worth it. Most cheaply made kits fit like butt and require a ton of work so they don't leave gaps or sit unevenly.
