Question JDM Parts

How does one go about getting the 99 spec body parts? Seen a few cars with them, so it's at least possible... any hints would be great!

Before you order, consider whether or not you want the front license plate holder. If not, I think pettit (www.pettitracing.com) offers a '99 spec front end replica with the license plate removed.

before you consider that consider if you want urethane or fiberglass....the OEM piece is urethane....bendable, the aftermarket ones are fiberglass.....no flex at all.

How tough are the OEM pieces to install? I was planning on getting the new 99 reinforcement bar... but I'm not exactly sure what I'm getting myself into. I'd like to do this myself, but I don't have a ton of experience, and this would be my first body kit. I was hoping the mazda pieces would be straight bolt-in replacements.

since they are OEM, they will bolt right on and everything will line right up no problems. I wouldn't really call it a body kit though if it's an OEM part.
