hi, i have a mate who has a 3rd gen with the mazdaspeed Aero II front bumper and he needs new plastic covers to go over the fog lights/idicators. Does anyone know where he can get some from i have tried speaking to cork sport but they dont sell them seperately, have attatched a picture below for you to see what they look like.

Try Miguel at Neweraparts.com, I suspect though they would have to be ordered direct from Mazdaspeed which may be costly

I\'ve posted in the Wanted section and one of the guys on here has posted this link. (Cheers mazda bait)

I\'m not 100% sure if these are the correct ones though looking at them they look like the new Version GTC? But may be worth mailing them?

Ok Scratch that, its not a GTC bumper. But i\'m told RHDJapan can source them so its still worth mailing them.

If you are up for a bit of messing to get the right fit You can do this but with some subtle changes.

Read this first....

http://www.rx7club.com/showthread.ph...azdaspeed+lens

Then adapt the Method by doing this.......

basically you use the the old lens if you have one (even if its bodged back together with bits of tape and super glue), you then make a paper template, cut the PG out and warm, whilst its warming up get some tin foil and rap the old Lens as tight as poss with as little wrinkles as poss, Now remove the Hot PG from the oven and place it over the old lens and gently form into the correct shape (i\'m told you don\'t have long to do this so don\'t mess about and don\'t forget there sided) The Foil will give it just enough Heat protection as to not unshape the old one.
