Sold my Miata :( to pay my bills and fund for my 99spec conversion......need help!
Ok, a buyer just came by and dropped a deposit for my Miata DD today. Pretty sad, because I loved that car and it has a great running engine. But times are hard, and I need money so its gonna be sold tomorrow. But on a good note, I'll have $2000 to put into my 99spec conversion. I was wondering where I could get these parts for the lowest price possible. the 99 wing I don't mind getting used, but the front end, I prefer it to be brand new. The cheapest I've found the front end assembly for is at corksport $1763 and $186.80 for shipping = $1,949.80. If anyone knows a place where I can get these parts for cheaper, then lmk. Or if anyone is selling the 99 spec parts in superb condition for cheap then lmk. I want to try to get this car looking good for sevenstock XIV.

Corksport has the best prices on the 99 bumper, you can get the 99 lip from them as well.
You do not need the rebar, you can cut your own.
Buy the lights off ebay.
Authentic 99 spoilers can be found on ebay as well.
The shipping is reasonable as it is freight. Unless you want to entertain renting a minivan and driving up to oregon to pick it up

I've looked into it a bit, as moosejaw says you do not need the rebar unless you are wanting to buy one of the FD oil coolers ducts (RMagic?), in which case I remember someone saying it is a lot less hassle if you just buy the rebar.
I think SR Motorsport (http://www.srmotorsports.com/sr9399ef.html) may have some individual pieces for cheaper if I recall correctly. Also, you can get a replica front bumper with the plate holder shaved off for a really good deal if you barter, I think someone mentioned 300ish range. There's a thread here somewhere with more info. I personally like the plateless look more, so I will be shooting for that in the future.

I think someone has their priorities wrong. If you needed to sell a car to pay bills, are those bills gone now or are they reoccurring bills? I would save up till I can do it correctly and still pay the bills, don't forget still have to pay to have it fitted right also. That will be $300-$500 unless you do it yourself, then paint.

Regarding SR Motorsports, that guy is an out-and-out crook, and I refuse to purchase anything from him. Do a search in the bad guy section and you'll find all sorts of horrible stories. Example: spray-painting used oem PPFs red and selling them for $600 as Mazdaspeed units.

You're correct on the R-Magic Oil Cooler Ducts. However, I managed to get them to work with the oem rebar, it's just a lot of work
