which one? mazdaspeed have released a variety of FD3S front bumpers over the years.

the most commonly seen old one on these forums is this one:

...the old version of the GT kit (note the different lights)

I'll see if I can dig up some of the other kits

I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for.... There's a fairly current thread in this section "Post pics of your front end" where I saw this front end and started asking about it, and I was told it was a old Mazdaspeed product that had been discontinued. I absolutely love this front bumper!

What are the odds that there is one of these bumpers sitting around somewhere which could be bought?

You can buy replicas or Cork Sports has some in their site that are "actual Mazdaspeed"

Could Corksport help you find them? Now that I know where to find the bumper, I have absolutely no idea where I'm going to find $1700 (lol) I thought these things would be about half that price!

I can think of at least two other mazdaspeed kits from the early/mid-nineties, and one from the late nineties. The GT is by far the most popular though. Despite the price, mazdaspeed is the most popular bodykit maker for FDs (in Japan).

The old style GT bumper pops up on yahoo auctions all the time - they're usually a bit knocked around though.

I thought there was a predecessor to the 15th anniv kit - that looked similar - but it looks like I'm wrong.
