Rear Lower Bumperguard?

[clicknext]

I've seen some people who have a black piece at the very bottom of their rear bumper. I'm not talking about the one directly under the rear hatch, I'm talking about the section that's sort of seperated by a line, directly above the exhaust tip.

I think it looks really nice and changes the flow of the rear visual elements. Does anyone know if it's a custom piece you put on (and if it's available from the dealer) or is it just painted?

Thanks.

Yeah, its a rear valance. It's a seperate piece you put over the stock piece. DG makes a carbon fiber one. Type in "http://www.horsepowerfreaks.com/price/Mazda/Protege/DG_Motorsports/Body/Accents/part/Rear_Valance"

Cool, thanks. I'm guessing it's not available as a part from the dealer?

^^ you should sue Mazda for making the bumper look the same on the MS3.
