RE amemiya all the way. As far as I know you can still order that stuff from them new, but getting it from Japan to here is gonna cost ya. Their front ends are godlike, I want one.

That airdam looks like the one Victoria British sells. Don't know what's up with that side vent, though.

My personal opinion is that those vents are WAY overkill.

The hood is RE-Amemiya, so are the mirrors.
Bumper/airdam seem unknown though??? Haven't seen that before, and yes, it looks a lot like 2nd gen.
As for the mirrors, they are looking like the ones Mazda Racing (before Mazdaspeed existed) was using on their Le Mans RX7's. I'd like them, but RE-Amemiya's site is all Japanese, and my Japanese isn't that good

The hood you see on the RE Amemiya car is just the stock hood with their universal vents bolted on. The one you always see with the 24 vents like above is the JSS hood.

Wow... I think that is my favorite front end thus far. Not a fan of the hood but I'm definitely digging the front though.

It still eludes me to what facia that is! It's not overwhealming and would look very good on a very clean car!!!!

That's probably the best aftermarket front end that I've seen on a FB. It's functional and subtle, and doesn't ruin the lines of the car.

I agree completely. It doesnt completely look like it replaces the front bumper and relieves the 1st gen of that boat looking front end....
