Front lip can be had from any Mazda dealer, $150ish.
Rear bumper lip is obsolete and in high demand. Get your wallet out.

e-gay is most likely the only place that you will find the rear lip, as for the front there are many different sponsors, why are you trying to make your car look like an R package?

I doubt many people will be helping you.

uhh......... snowboarder? lots of people install the r-package spoiler. It's not just an appearance mod, and it isn't just to make the car look like an R-package.

miataz 01-20-2008 04:44 PM

i found a rear one on ratsback, but its cf only $189. Im getting all of this because i do want it look like an r-package, i like the look of it, i dont want a wiZdom body kit. What can i not make it look like an r-package snowboarder? Can cf be painted?

ApexOnYou 01-20-2008 04:47 PM

I have a front, simply because I like it and it makes the miata look less gay, not for "R-package status".. Brake ducting is a plus too.

If you know someone who is signed up for Mazdaspeed Motorsports, they sell them for $120 (last time I bought a bunch last year at least). Thats your cheapest option, otherwise look for used ones or pay a few extra bucks to get one at retail price. ($120 vs $150)

miataz 01-20-2008 04:56 PM

true, doesn't matter which color either because its getting painted but i will keep looking. Thanks

So true. Mine will look even less gay when I put the stock taillights on and replace the style bar with something more manly.

Yeah definitely. Off topic but I never have understood style bars. They make polished roll bars lol.

FWIW miataz, they never came painted, they were always flat black. Any painted R lips you have seen in color were painted after the fact.

miataz 01-20-2008 09:34 PM

i know lol, im just saying that because my cars getting painted in the spring :)

paul 01-20-2008 10:17 PM

I just dont get why you wouldn't just buy an R package if thats what you want your car too look like.

Yes CF can be painted, but why would you? The rats-back is much more fragile to my understanding, thats why i opted with the R rear lip myself.

^Garage Vary front lip

miataz 01-21-2008 08:00 AM

because i cant find an r-package around here, and i have put to much money into this miata to sell.

paul 01-21-2008 08:02 AM

how are people breaking the rear lips in CF? front lip i can understand and thats the reason i opted for the urethane version of the Garage Vary front air dam

speed bumps:dunno:

kotomile 01-21-2008 12:50 PM

I thought the GV was only made in Urethane?

Snowboarder: lots of people get the R front lip, but not because they're trying to make people think their car's an R package, it's just a small, clean OE style lip. Less air going under the car and a little more air blowing on the front brakes.

ApexOnYou 01-21-2008 01:01 PM

Didn't know I was a R package poser :jerkit:
