Unfortunately if you live any north of kentucky that front lip should have been a common sense no no for the daily driver. But, I am still sorry for your loss none the less.
Man, I've seen more Mazda5 accidents posted this season than before. At least all has ended in twisted metal and "fokt-up" plastics only, nothing else. To get pissed-off, nonetheless.
Mmmm yeah... Make me remember how really I really idiotly broke my bug deflector a couple weeks ago. Just bent over the hood to remove ice from a wiper, the end of the deflector got stuck in my coat (don't ask me why and how, I don't know) and just when I went back to my vertical position (standing up again), just heard a crack and there you have it. 65$ in the recycle bin...
That suck's, sorry to hear about it, i'm always on the lookout for anything that might damaged mine too. Look around and get a new one this spring and post pic's of it too.
BTW, what did that front lip cost you and did it come pre-painted?
I'm thinking of changing my front splitter for 2008 and really like that lip.

Living in canada=Please dont buy the front lip unless you like the above picture.
If its held by double sided tape thats one thing to remove it in the winter...wait a minute. If you guys live in canada, that means you have winter houses\trailers\campers in tampa FL...so the lip may work after all.
