Will a front bumper fit in an rx-8
#2
I'm going to say no... As I was unable to fit mine in my car a few months ago...
I just may not have tried enough different ways of fitting it in because I didn't want to damage the interior though...

i fit a CF Mazdaspeed rear diffuser in mine. not sure about a front bumper though. try sliding the seat all the way forward, then tilt it back. you can make more room that way. you could also just remove the seat as mentioned before. also make sure to put a blanket or something down so you don't scratch your interior.

the front bumper fits fine. i drove from NJ to CT with mine next to me and it didn't even feel that cramped. no need to use a truck - just make sure you wrap it with blankets so you don't scratch anything.

i just had to fit a MS bumper in mine. it does work. all you have to do is take out the back seats.. the Bottom and back of it.. it will only take you 10 mins to do it tops.. and then just lay down the passenger seat all the way. trust me it will work

ive fit assembled catback systems, a 32" widescreen tv (in a 45" box), 8 wheels... probably depends on the bumper... but move passenger seat all the way forward, recline all the way down, and you're probably okay. but if you already have a truck, why bother.

Its a stock bumper I also fit my catback in my 8 just fine I figured its not much wider. I would rather not bother my dad for his truck but he might get to enjoy the 8 for a couple hrs while I truck it. Thanks guys

How much work is involved in removing the rear seats? Just curious...

not a lot.. all you have to do is pull up on the bottom of the seats and they will come out... and for the back of the seats there is 2 bolts for each seat.. 10mm... then after you get the bolts out push up on the back of the seat a little bit and it will come right out.. it should only take you 10 mins... it worth the 10 mins so you dont mess up your seats with the bumper
