who just bought the last NEW IMSA front bumper kit you ask?? MEEE!!!!
whelp, i bought the IMSA front bumper kit off ebay for a hefty price. it was brand new though and i knew the opportunity wouldnt arise again, so i jumped on it.
today the seller calls me and we talk for a few minutes. ends up, he is the guy who produced them for mazda usa back in the day. i think he said he produced somewhere around 15,000 bumpers. i told him i was currently trying to get new molds made and there was a lot of interest in them. he said due to the lack of interest for the bumper in the 90's the molds were destroied. he said to remake the molds would be around $15k-$20k. he had 4 just the frotn section left, but no edges. for an additional fee he threw in another front section for me. so you guys know, he has three left if anyone has a damaged front and wants to replace it. if you do replace it, let a forum member use the old one for a mold. he also has the original 3 piece wing and he said hes going to be listing those on ebay soon cause he trying to clear out his warehouse.
just a heads up and its about damn time i got my hands on one of these kits

ok. the front includes just the front part and the part that goes behind it to direct the air. all that is missing is the side pieces. you would have to get customon what to do there, but its still a good deal. john just told me hes not 100% sure what the price would be, but probably around $150 shipped.

this is a pretty bad explination, very VERY Vague. the front part, as in the plastic bumper skin and the header panel (between the hood and bumper skin), or what?

ok. heres a picof the bumper. its a three pice bumper(front piece and two sidepieces). as you can see in the pic i put a line where the front seperates from the sides. the sides arent included, i bought the last two sides ever made. i dont know the price. he was going to let one go to me for an extra $125 and wouldnt be any higher on shipping. if someone wants one, send me money BY LATER SUNDAY and ill tell him to put it in the box. he wont be back at the shop till monday morning and my package goes out monday morning around 9:30-10am.
