M2 makes a hood too!
I don't like that hood too much, but it's ok.. so I'm probably gonna just get the stock hood since I want to use that M2 ****.



As for getting a Mazda front bumper and rear

spoiler (dont forget to say hi) I would stick with

Mazda, it looks sooo much cleaner, and smooth
Jason,

Are you saying stick with the 93-95 look, or get '99 spec? Do you sell oem mazda hoods (new)? What about new '99 rear spoiler and '99 complete front bumper? I'm looking at the '99 complete kit-which includes2) Tailights, complete front end-that includes the bumper skin, bumper reinforcement, both front turn signals, spoilers. (2) side markers, rear adjustable spoiler, front and rear emblems.( except the wheels ) The only thing I'm not getting is the fog lights, which are like $199/each and the brake ducts (if they're any different from the 93-95) for like $125/each. *Entire package is $2999* Can you give me a better deal? :bigok: And shippings gonna be hell..($$) This would be extremely great. and remember.. when you get a good strut bar in stock I'll be getting that too. Thanks alot.



P.S. there's a possibility I might need some oem side skirts & pop up light too.

For the whole 99spec bumper kit. I can find one in prime condition

and I will throw in the lights.



All shipped for $1200



OEM Side skirts are pricey over here man. You best bet is try in the

US and if you dont have any luck, during this I can be looking too. Most

people wont give them up around here, but they pop up every once and

a while.



As for my opinion. 93-95 is what the car is. Since you like the 99 spoiler, go 99 then. I can get all the parts USED very cheap. IMHO I just mean if you like the 99, go 99. Mostly just go for what you like. You dont want to have to change it all the time, just go with what you like. I know its hard to decide...



Good luck with it, and let me know if you have any questions and I will

see what I can do to hook you up

imho

i doubt a 3rd gen in itself is considered a sleeper ...

if your definition of sleeper is factory design...

then i would recommend pettit 99 front with shaved license holder

and to provide heat disappation without looking ricey for the hood..

i suggest the pettit hood....

I like the mazdaspeed hood, flows with the car very nicely. The scoot hood is way too ricey for my blood.

I like the Knightsport hood, it looks like it would allow alot of heat out and still looks like it has fairly clean body lines. I have never seen one in real life but that is what I an tell from the pics. I do not like the Scoot hood either, teh front nose vent is too much for me. I do like the RE-AD 9 hood though. A similar vent design as the Scoot without the front snout. Very sharp looking hood I think.

It's just my oppinion but I love the way the scoot hood looks, but then again the more aggressive the body kit the more I like it.
