How difficult is it to replace the front black plastic air dam with another factory air dam? It appears to be in two pieces, but it's not clear how it is attached. Is the attachment hardware separate from the air dam, or is it integral to it? I would check for myself, but the weather and my entire driveway is just a giant sheet of ice. I'm hoping that it is held on to the lower front bumper with some type of easily replaceable plastic screws.

Thanks in advance!

Thank you, that is exceptionally helpful! My front air dam popped loose when I encountered a block of ice hidden in the snow. Given how it attaches, it should be a simple matter to remedy with some new 51-833 plastic rivets.

The underside of your Mazda 2 is nice. The one on the B-Spec car has seen some better days with less off-roading and wrecks, lol
