No, just google search "99 spec rx-7 bumper" and you'll see what they look like

Yes it's real Mazda. You could tell if something is real or not by the price.

Just so you know there's the whole bumper assembly(the higher price) and the bumper cover only(lower price). Make sure you buy the right one.

I bought the assembly from cork sports about a month ago, but I just received it a week ago (bumper cover was out of stock). Anyways, the assembly comes with the bumper cover, bumper reinforcement, and turn signals with the adapters, everything is oem.

If you buy the bumper cover only you will need to fabricate your own reinforcement bar to avoid sagging. You will also need to change the retainer (metal/aluminum piece) from the older bumper to the newer one. I messaged Ray to see if they have them as I do not have my older bumper to do the swap.
