05 MSM looking for a new nose.
 

Hi, I've had an 05 Mazdaspeed close to two years now with some Flyin' Miata upgrades on it and it's a fun drive. While I want to continue to upgrade the car mechanically I'm after a particular nose for the car. I've done some home work on this particular car. I'm told it's owned , or was owned, by someone who calls himself "Doppelganger" . I'm trying to find out where I can find the exact same piece to put on mine. Been told it's legitimate Garage Vary front bumper but haven't been able to find it. If anyone has any ideas on where I might be able to find one. That would truly help. I've checked some of the Japan auctions to with no luck. Thank you John

Not a fan, I really like the AP2 pieces. Good luck in your search.

Each to there own. AP2 pieces from who?

Oem Mazda. Appearance Package 2 trim. The car in your picture has the sideskirts and rear spats from that package.

I'm only interested in the nose section. From what I've read about the side skirts, which I don't want, is they increase the rust factor. I do appreciate your helpful replies. Thank you..

Your right except if you look at shipping you have to contact them and are told we no longer import large body pieces from Japan. This is what I got back."Hey John,

I don’t currently have a means to export from Japan large body parts like bumpers, hoods, side skirts, spoilers, or hard tops.

For such large parts, I recommend you contact my partner Sean Shokuh at JDMPalace.

I've requested a quote twice and still no reply. Talk about frustrating.

Thanks for your interest
John

It's a GV specifically for NB2. Hard to find. Try Rev9. Be prepared to spend $ALLOFIT.

Thanks! I'll give it a shot. Let you know how it goes.

I really liked Dopple's car, I even sold him one of my built engines for it.

Except that bumper/nose. It UGLY. But I guess beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.

I think Doppleganger used to also own a Subaru Legacy SpecB.

I paid $1400 delivered for an NA GV Nzero bumper through JDM Palace. Still in it's box lol. At least mine looks good lol.
