im looking forward to purchase the r-magic front bumper, but the price on for the authentic front bumper is just too expansive for me. so does anyone know any place that has knock-off r-magic front bumper?

That's not true at all. There is a large number of people who buy the replica, install it as-is on the car without getting it painted or fitted. Of course, half the rear bumper is flapping around loose in the wind, and the parts don't match the paint on the car, but in those cases it was cheaper than the genuine parts

95% of replica kits out there end up costing the same as authentic kits once u get them to fit correctly.. i too am on the boat that if u cant afford it dont get it!... u most likely spent $20,000+ on ur rx8 y throw the cheapest bumpers u can find on it?

before misleading others post pictures....especially close ups of where the trunk meets the rear bumper, the front bumper where it meets the fenders and the corner of the hood where it meets the fenders.....i would be willing to bet there are minimum 1-2 fingers of gap especially on a pre-fitted kit

Well, said.. If you can't afford it then you shouldn't buy a cheap replica of something. Garbage quality, plus you'll get laughed at for having a knock-off because you'll have to tell them everytime that it's not the real R Magic kit, but a cheap replica.

Agreed with everyone here. We got the ED R-Magic Knock off, & it took way too much work than I liked. Over 20 hrs on just the front bumper.. BLEH! Even now, as it sits, I am taking it back to get a little bit re-worked.

Here is one site that makes a fiberglass model.

But what do you get for $299.00?
And it says this on the description page.
