Title: 99 spec support bar?

Hi all,
I know this has been discussed before, but I couldnt find the thread, so bear with me :p
I\'ve ordered a 99 spec front bumper, and I was told that there was no need in buying a 99 spec support bar, modify the old one would do.
Now, I cant help but thinking there must be a good reason for Mazda to have spent time and money developing a new one. Afterall, their moto has always been "if it aint broken, dont fix it". ;)
I know Im probably just being fussy. Just wondering that if there\'s any real advantages in fitted a 99 spec one?

:cheers

Hi Jj,

I kept the early main under bumper on my car but found I had to cut the holes in each end bigger to accomadate the larger side/indicator units.

Hope this helps.
