neokai 06-30-02 06:33 PM

i like the feed one. the 99 front, while nice, looks a bit TOO happy. :D i just don't think i've seen any sides that go particularly well with the feed front thoe. :(

Yep :p:
The Feed Style one is from RotaryExtreme
The 99 is from Pettit.

Hey, TTT, I gotsa start makin $$$ first! As soon as I do, into the body shop she goes and the OEM side skirts and rear mud flaps will go in with it :D

Then its a freer flowing exhaust (Going with Borla)
Then a coil over kit
Then (FINALLY) begin to start saving for wheels ( K59 ;) )
and maybe somewhere inbetween an IC :p:

I can't wait to get my wheels :drool:

same question here? Also, do you have any pics of the fitment of the pettit front, or any comments? I really wanted the 99 spec front, but i don't want that damn license plate holder. Whats the price tag on the pettit front?

-Rob

rx7even 07-01-02 02:11 AM

The Pettit front is Fiberglass. It's $550 without the lights or the front splitter.

weaklink 07-01-02 12:14 PM

ok what about the side skirts? I'm in, where can I get 'em?

jspecracer7 07-01-02 01:02 PM

That FEED bumper is SO HoT!!!!

...but I think it would look better with my FEED FMIC;)

JoeHanson 07-01-02 01:08 PM

ooohhh, I like that FEED front end...

nummy

Dragueur 07-01-02 02:12 PM

NICE!!!!!
 
but the 99 happy front is starting to look like the RX8....:confused:

i like the FEED.....

SoCalLove 07-01-02 02:38 PM

Hey, I'd like to get the '99 front. Pettit looks to be the cheapest I've seen so far. How is the fiberglass replica holding up? Is it pretty strong?

talk to Silver93TT about that. he got the 99 spec front end put on his car without the license plate holder. i dont quite remember exactly how they did that, somethin like they cut it off and filled it in with some sort of material and it looks really good. pm him if you want to hear more

Flybye 07-01-02 09:38 PM

That is Dimcorner's FD with the Pettit. Her works pretty close with Pettit. I have to say that the front end didn't match very well, BUT he does have one of the earlier versions. Ask him about the current versions on it.

I'm actually happier with the fitment of my Feed Style Bumper as opposed to his Pettit bumper.

I got my Sideskirts from ebay. No one that I know of sells them in the US. Sorry :D

weaklink 07-08-02 09:33 PM

I think those are re amemiya side skirts, not mazda's.

weaklink 07-08-02 09:38 PM

ok I was wrong...

Fd3BOOST 07-08-02 10:32 PM

Both of those cars are very hot. I personaly think th e99 spec looks better when sitting side by side. Great pic BTW. I'm jealous.

Someone selling FEED on ebay
 
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...ndexURL=0&rd=1

I noticed that someone is selling the feed bumper with the combo lights on ebay. No bids now but you can buy it now for 850 + 30 bucks shipping. I guess it really depends what the reserve is, but that's not a bad price.

I wonder if you still need the reinforcement.

wptrx7 07-09-02 11:46 AM

thats not the feed front.
luigi

1bad7 07-09-02 01:23 PM

like stated above that is NOT a feed bumper. thats a bumper made by some company (cant remember their name) thats made to look like the 99 spec one with the lip moulded into the bumper. you can purchase one brand new for about $300 or sumthing like that. just another ebay ripoff ;)

black99 07-09-02 01:28 PM

That bumpers made by MB Autosport. 1bad7 what flares are you getting?

1bad7 07-09-02 05:35 PM

RE Amemiya flares black99. im gettin the whole kit... sideskirts, flares, and the rear finisher. theyre 3 separate pieces but they look like one big sideskirt that flows around the wheel well when installed. lets see if i can find a pic... here we go

rotaryextreme 07-10-02 06:44 AM

Kris, you know the RE flares you are getting are only for looks right? You can't really put on larger wheels. BTW, I have a surprise for you. You will find out in about 5 days. BTW, email me some pix of your car. I want to put those on my website if that's ok with you. Actually for everyone that got the FEED replica, please send me photos after it's painted if you don't mind.

Fd3BOOST 07-10-02 06:54 AM

That is one large ass IC. Very nice IMO.
I saw that Feed Replica on ebay in person. Thats Madjae. I bought my Mazdaspeed CF replica from him.
Does anyone have the link to that MB autosport site? I used to have it.There parts are really cheap. Good for racing and drifting I suppose. You can fuck it up and not feel bad about it.

lol, this is jack. sorry about the confusion chuck but i musta confused ya since i used my brothers credit card to purchase the bumper and hood from ya. my credit card has been long overdrawn, im in a nice lil hole right now and i havent stopped digging yet :D

r u sure that the flares dont allow for wider tires? ive attached a pic that shows that they widen the rear by quite a bit so im guessin that u can fit wider tires :confused:

THE HOOD IS ON ITS WAY!!! fawkin sweet :D
ill definately send you some pics... i just need to get the car back from the shop

1bad7 07-10-02 09:04 AM
