Had my front bumper replaced with the MSP/MP3 front bumper after my uncle's ML mercedes decided to take a chunk out. Here are the pics. Lowered all the way down on Tein SS. Pics taken my GF and myself using her Canon Rebel XTi and SD870is. Questions and comments welcome! (cabpatch)

The msp/mp3 bumper does not have the ugly orange side markers in front of the wheels. Fogs are Catz SR's.

I also wired the fender side markers to be on with the parking lights, and still blink with the turn signals. Super easy.

Thought that was just a 02 vs. 03 year model thing. MP3/P5 is the same bumper. MSP is different & doesn't have the fogs, right? Either way, car looks sweet.

Both 02 and 03 P5's have the sidemarkers. MP3 and MSP both do not. 03 MSP has fogs like P5 and MP#. 03.5 MSP has the redesigned lip which deletes the fogs.

Also I think that between the 02 and 03 model years on P5's the sidemarkers flipped upside down but I'm not positive.

Wow sweet deal! I originally got mine from Ebay for $200 shipped, and then someone hit me @ work and broke one. Corksport was able to order a single one for me for $110 shipped.
