Title: had a run in with a rabbit
Post by: JL1978 on August 16, 2005, 05:45:31 PM
Hello all . I had a slight mishap coming from work the other morning with a rabbit , Im hoping it wont cost to much to put right but as its a mazda then it probably will..  Does anyone know where i can get one of those side lights from as i don\'t think they are standard? also does anyone know where i can get a front splitter?
any help would be most appreciated....

many thanks Jamie

Cor, little b*stard! You can get those clear side lights on ebay sometimes, think it\'s a company called porcarparts that does them or jdmhondaparts or something. They\'re about £30 for the pair. That splitter is off a \'99 spec car, maybe one of the vendors at the top of the page could help you out? If you don\'t mind goin back to the earlier style splitter, deanflowers has an immaculate one for sale in montego blue. It\'ll fit better than the \'99 spec one too.

The clear one\'s aren\'t standard, no. The standard ones are amber. There\'s a set of clear ones up on ebay at the mo:

i ran over a rabbit not too long ago,  didnt kill him cleanly, i had to go back and bash its head in with a stick.

Unlucky bout the car dude, damage doesnt look that bad.. you must have hit a baby rabbit?

Bet the bunny appriciated that..  :yes  lol

Iv got tha same front splitter as u bud, i took mine off n sat it in the garage cus where i live, way to low :) not sprayed tho.. if your interested, but just looks like your screw fasters came out, use a nut n bolt with a few washers should fix it fine..
