Oakland, Richmond, Fairfield, Rancho Cordova, uhm Antioch I think, and there are much more those are just the ones I've been to. Fairfield is pretty good I normally see lots of Rx7s there but sometimes I go and nothing.

Pick-n-Pull is in San Jose, Milpitas, Newark, Rancho Cordova (VERY nice one, had 4 FC's last week out of like 30 total mazdas!!).

There's a Pick-your-part in Hayward, usually only 1 or 2 FC's in there. Up in Rancho Cordova, there's also a place called Mazda Recycling, where they part the cars up and sell the parts. You're gonna get a part in good shape, but you'll pay a price over a junkyard.

I was just out at the pick-n-pull in Rancho Cordova yesterday. They had 4-5 FCs and 5-6 FBs. Pretty sure all the FCs were S4s, and one of the FBs was a GSL-SE.

Yup. They even had a GXL with BLUE interior. Almost all the FC's at JY's are red interior. And yeah, overall, I'd say 95% are S4's from what i've seen.

You could also check out a number of internet dealers. That would eliminate the time it would take to go to a junk yard and try to find a specific part. I'm partial to using this site simply because they can differentiate between states for part look ups. Good luck.

don't have bumpers in their part list, granted they'd probably want a couple of arms and a leg for one especially after shipping
