Is it a '99 OEM Front Bumper?
Hello,

I just hit an small animal on the highway and it completely destroyed my freshly painted bumper. It was in Fiberglass so it simply 'explosed'

I'm not sure what exact model I have... I doubt it's the OEM since it is in Fiberglass/FRP.

Some pictures:

Thanks for the help.

OK, no. I'm not in the mood... so please. If anybody has an idea, it would be appreciated. I'm not a RX7 purist and never seen the 99spec before, so I was wrong.

Right, I don't believe it's a C-West either.

tough brakes. Maybe it's time to consider going OEM or at least least going with something made out of polyfiber (flexible).

Thanks for the help!

I did not order the origin though... it was more expensive and made of FRP only. (very easy to crack) - I went with a C-West N1 PFRP type.
