hey everyone, i really like the mazdaspeed body kit.... but its pretty $$, i noticed that that Cork Sport has a Nose and side skirts at less then half the price... and look almost the same...
what are the differences? is the Cork Sport poor quality in comparison to the Mazdaspeed. visibly all i notice in the diff is the fog lights in the front corners... can u buy those seperatly to hook them up?

thanx for the help

The Corksport bumper is a bit thinner....Thats about it. I have one and so does Barry...Didnt have any problems with fitment either. As for the sides I am not sure.

Mazdaspeed - urethane
Corksport - fiberglass

The Mazdaspeed IS Fiberglass...The only urethane bumpers Mazdaspeed has ever made was for the RX8 and the Mazda Demio (sp).

the mazdaspeed ones adavantage is just that it is from mazda speed. bragging rights i guess.

sorta like the SPEC R1 wrx its the same as the WRX but all you get is coloured wheels and badges that show you have paid more for the same damn thing.

I have a hard time believing that the real ms bumper is fiberglass. My friend got the mazdaspeed kit for his 3rd gen and it was urethane but it wasn't from corksport. :confused2:

no he didnt. Like I said Mazdaspeed has never made any bumpers in urethane other than the two i listed.....I have seen the catalog with my own eyes. prove me wrong. P.S. I'm not tryin to be an azz but i know they dont make one.

your right! sorry, I just icq'd him and he told me that it is fiberglass but is double the strength of the usual. That explains it when I tapped it before I thought it was urethane.
