not really understanding the Mazdaspeed front bumper...
I have a 2005 RX8 with the Grand Touring package, and i was looking at the Mazda speed front bumper, besides some wire mesh, i dont see any real difference between that and what came stock with my car... i mean 1200 bucks to have some wire mesh on the front? Maybe someone can point out something i'm missing perhaps?

OK...I'm in....
The ONLY front I like is the MS.
...but up here in Canukland, the price is just insane - does anyone have a hookup with a cheap knock-off version, that has even "reasonable" fit/quality?
Anyone with some info on a good compromise ?

Uhhh ... lots of differences. here's a link from a meet we had in Calgary with my stock blue, Admiral 8's frontair dam and Slowludes MS front. If you scroll down to Rotten42's post #8, he's got a front comparison pic of airdam vs MS

Or you could go with Racing Beats first gen kit.

Here are some good pictures of the 2005 Mazdaspeed RX-8 II... You can really see the difference on the front grill.

I googled around, and found this.

It looks like the 2 was a limited edition for Japan only, and the kit is not available.
