anyone know where I can get a stock front bumper cheap? I want one for in the winter so this one doesn't get ruined. all I can find are the sedan ones :/
well right now it is cracked on the lip and needs fixed and since its fiberglass it will probably have to come off the car for a couple days to get fixed and repainted and me and my wife use the car every day so that isnt a opition for us. plus I wanted a stock one as backup just in case one of us hits a animal and it shatters into pieces, <--- has happened to me before and not to mention I live in the middle of nowhere so when it snows it piles up and we are lucky if it get plowed and I also know from experience that fiberglass bumpers and snow hate each other i might do that tho once it gets fixed i never heard of it till now.
yea i work at advanced auto and i called one place that we deal with and they had 1 brand new for $111 but i had to pay over the phone and i left my bank card at home, so i had to wait till my wife got home so she could give me the numbers but by the time i got them and called back it was sold >.<
That blows. Keep looking you will find one. It sucks nobody makes "aftermarket" ones. By aftermarket I mean only Mazda makes stock bumpers for the 3 and no third parties so there is limited numbers of them around.
When I first saw it on the lot, I swore it was black. They drove it up to me telling me it was maroon, then I walked up to it an noticed it was purple! I'm loving the looks I get when people see it. I know they're rare and whatnot =]
