Yes, that is the Stock bumber!<BR>For the the GS lip I just cut that with a jigsaw....two quick cuts<BR>I got bored and pulled out Dad's rotozip and hacked away. At the grill. Then sanded it the best I could (uthane doesn't sand that easy....mainly I used the rotozip the best I could) Then I painted it with some red paint to hid the black marks from where it was cut....<BR>For the grill mesh i used gutter mesh (used to keep the leaves out of your gutters)....I got a few sheets for 5 bucks (incase I messed up)...painted the mesh white and the little grill. When the paint was dry I bent the mesh to fit and glued it in with contact cement.<BR> <BR>Cost:<BR>Rust-oleum SunRise Red spray paint $3.00<BR>Glossy White Spray paint...........$2.00<BR>One sheet of gutter mesh...........$1.00<BR>One tube of contact cement.........$3.00<B><BR>Total spent on this porject........$9.00<BR>Total time spent on this project...6 hours</B><BR>Why did it take so long...I had no I idea what I wanted to do just was sick of the old style and figured if I really mess it up I'll just buy a new one.<P>How did yours come out Dj_Pawz_GS? Lets see some pics!<P><BR><P>------------------<BR>Liquid_Metal<BR>'94 MX-3GS<BR> Mazda_MX3GS@yahoo.com <BR><A HREF="http://www.MX-3GS.com" TARGET=_blank>www.MX-3GS.com<BR></A>
