I'm from Wesley Chapel too... It's not that bad of a drive that early with no traffic really only like a half an hour... You should come out Wednesday night theres a small meet at the publix shopping center on the corner of 56 and Bruce b downs, people usually start showing up around 9:30-10:00. Nothing special people just kind of hang out.

Don't really know of anyone local that would have them lying around, you can try getting in touch with Scott at Minds Eye Engineering(formerly Mazsport lol)...Some people might be against me for saying it cause a lot of people don't trust him around here, but for just a source of parts it might be worth a try. He's over in Largo, I was at his shop picking up an exhaust I bought from a member on here and he had a lot of parts in his shop, he may have some that are in good shape.
Number for the shop is 727-489-7881.
You could also try posting a WTB Thread in the for sale section someone might be willing to make a deal that way.

Well it finally happen. Hit a recycling bin with the 8 coming over the skyway last night. Ripped the bottom of the bumper off, split it all the way up to the bottom of the mazda emblem. Punched a hole in the radiator.
Was able to limp down to the rest stop and happen to come across the guys who lost the bin. So now the 8 is sitting in a yard waiting.

Alright so after having to park the 8 for a week due to not having insurance I got everything squared away and I'm back on the road. Now I had already had a check engine light so I got around to pulling the codes an they tell me I need a new cat or mid pipe(merry Christmas to me right?) and a new gas cap among other things. So, what mid pipe should I go with? I'm thinking RB of course I'll wait for Christmas to get it.

I had to file a claim with my company and they will go after his for what they can. I talked to the owner of the repair shop that is doing the work and we are going to try to work out a deal to get me a body kit instead of just a stock bumper.
So I'll be without it for at least a week or two.

Well the car has been there since Friday and still no adjuster to look at it.
State Farm put the claim in on the wrong car!
So now I am waiting until sometime today or maybe tomorrow before an adjuster looks at it.
