Looks really good in the front, but kind of looks unbalanced because autoexe hasn't released their rear bumper yet or sideskirts.
Looks nice! Not of fan of the rims though. How is the fitment? Great I expect.

Damn Kosmic, I LOVE that bumper, this is the first I've seen it on a Cosmic Blue Mica. That's my color of choice too, good job! :) I am going to buy myself on of those bumpers damned soon, I LOVE the intake holes on the front, they're gigantic. You have a carbon fiber hood too, huh? I'm waiting for a more modified hood to come along, I want scoops or inlets or SOMETHING on there. I really like your wheels, too, what are they exactly? They have a very 'Gran Turismo' look, and it's a look I try to go for on each of my cars. EVERYbody has 5-points these days, those are more euro in my opinion and set you apart.

I was going to say how great it looks, but sl0wthe0ry's sig distracted me...
Cant wait to see better pictures of this on Cosmic Blue. I've only seen it on black which hides some of the accents of this bumper.
Diggin the RE30's in mercury silver. But on the fence with the CF hood on blue - the hood covers a lot of real estate on the front end and there's too much of a contrast between the blue and black.. betya it looks pretty damn good in person though! ;)

Like BKW stated the wheels are Volks RE30's! Yes I also have the Fiber Image CF hood. Supposably FI will also be coming out with a scooped hood, but no one knows when. I love the OEM look of the hood so I got it. Thanks for the compliments.

I am actually thinking about raising it 1/2 an inch in the front to kind of balance it with the back, but also to make a little more drivable.

Where did you get the CF hood from and is it a perfect streamlined fit

Do you still ahve all the ducting, for the air to get to the TMIC?...because i thought that there was a place on the stock bumper to direct air into the TMIC?>

Thanks! My BF's friend owns a shop (Rotorsport) here in San Jose and he ordered it all. $800 for the bumper and grill and $450 to get it painted. Not sure about shipping though.

I love the updated photos; I wish I was made of money. :( I just blew what could've been a TBE, an Auto-EXE bumper and painted... On a from-scratch custom designed solitaire sapphire engagement ring. Quick; reinforce my decision and tell me things like how long-term happiness and love is a better investment than appearance and performance modifications that let me better touch the face of the speeding demon and look good doing it... :)

I feel your pain. About 7 years ago, I sold a motorcycle to buy an engagement ring. It was worth it I guess. I've given up sex for someone who's putting on 20lbs a year. (hello 310lbs!) So I've got that going for me, which is nice.
On topic, that bumper looks GREAT. Are their any modifications to the car to make it fit?

Damn hot! Do you have a CAI installed and does the lower/larger opening on the front have pros/cons? i.e. better breathing or more risk for sucking in water... thanks

Better breathing YES. More risk of sucking Water YES, but here in Cali it doesn't rain much and if it ever did get bad I have a back up car to drive around in.

I give you props for doing what you did. It will pay off don't worry. I wish my BF of 10 YEARS would think about doing something like that for us. Instead he has spent it all on his RX-8! Which in a way it's coo because that car now looks sooooo hawt, but anyways good luck with your engagement. She's a lucky woman!

I think he had to shave down the grill, but that was it and the fitment is perfect!

Love the look! By far my favorite cb ms3. One question though, did yours come with a license plate bracket? And if so, how much did it cost you to shave it off?

It did come with the bracket and the guys that painted it didn't charge me anything extra to shave it off!(hump)

Hell with the engagement ring. I'm starting a new trend, engagement CAR! And it would look EXACTLY like yours. I LOVE the bumper. Looks so hot. I also have a CB and if I had the money I would definitely get that AutoEXE bumper.
Nice work!

sedans are better....and my mods plus tuning and a 50 shot (car is at the shop right now getting tuned tommorrow and nos installed) you might hang with me but it will be hard to catch my ass if i get a head start

Are you really in a thread about someone else's car tossing out idle e-thug threats? What are you, 16?
If sedans are so much better why were you even in here, crying about how nobody makes parts for your car? Enjoy that blown motor and voided warranty with your nos.
Savate
11-21-2007, 12:24 PM
I wonder if MSpeedracer has any facts to back up his opinion of sedans are better. Better how? Less cargo room? Or is it aerodynamics you refer to? You do realize this is a Speed3 (i.e. "Hatchback") forum right? We are hear to love our cars, not start flame wars or thread jacks, 'nuff said. Love it or lose it.
p5sundevil
11-21-2007, 04:09 PM
i think it looks great, the sedans may have also been awesome in a speed version but guess what, it didnt happen.
Hard to cathc you if you get a head start, what sense does that make...meaning you know if you didnt get a head start you would get your ass handed to you by a relatively stock car....hmmmmmm
this thread is about he MS3 and the new bumper, which like I said looks perfect, first time ive seen an aftermarket body part look like its fitment is as good if not better than stock from the factory.
MSpeedRacer
11-22-2007, 07:08 AM
actually i believe it says........ Mazda3 (MazdaIII.com) / Axela / MAZDASPEED3 (MZSPD3.com)
And so the latter would only be a "Hatch back only thing" you guys are getting even more cockier than srt owners now.
And the blown motor thing is cute since ill be runing a Haltech F10X ecu tuned for nitrous, plus my cars warranty was voided long ago. And i dont care.
Besides you hatch tards are the ones who started this all i said was i didnt especially like that front and i think the oem one looks better (especially with a lip). And then i said i wish they made a mazdaspped style bumper for the sedan and i got flamed so i was a little asshole back because i didnt feel like i was out of place but i guess god all fucking mighty himself gave you "Mazdaspeed" owners and just you the power to be a dick, or lack there of.
Not everyone likes hatches!

Eyeroll... If you really think a 50 shot is going to help your turd beat a MS3, im game for some paypal betting action... I do like his keyword " If i get a head start . "
