The bumper cost 2 bills. It's hard to find one as has been stated before especially local (I wanted to check it out first) but you could always go to www.car-parts.com there are some listed on there but none local to me and I didn't want to pay shipping for a bumper.

Thanks DeaDLy, I like it too, I wanted something a little more agressive but not something that made my car look like a hotwheels.

My goal is to have something that looks tight but would be mistaken for stock.

Just so you guys know where I am going

I have:
2001 16" miata rims on now WhooHoo (got them yesterday) Fit Great handle Greater Look even greater

Eibach ProKit /&/ Tokico ZX2 struts
Energy suspension bushings
1" Rear swaybar
Front and rear Strut Tower braces


I have but not put on:
EGT Front Bumper
EGT SideSkirts (93-96)
MX3 front seats (to be recovered)
Pacesetter Shifter
Fubu antenna

Soon to have:
MX3 Rear seat (to be recovered)
EGT Rear Seat back (to be recovered)
Can. Pro GT spoiler (early design)
Rear Mudguards
Black carpet
Clear corners (hot digitty)


Plus so much more

Want but don't know if I can get it for a reasonable price:
Familia rear bumper

I will be painting all my accents bronze to accent the gold color of the car like the :

Inside of the grill
Outline of the lights
Rims
Wipers
Calipers
and such

And recovering the door panels with black leatherett
What were they thinking with that weird multi color material?????

Anyway I could go on and on and I haven't even gotten into the engin swap thing.

Well time is my biggest enemy, I have none

To all who actually read my ramblings - thanks for listening and your thoughts and suggestions are welcome.

I want the mx3's myself though.. are they realy recaros ? and damn man, you found some 91-96 skirts!@!! I want those! I dun really like the 91-92 ones. I also want the wheels that were exclusive to 93

Which wheels you talkin about ? 93 what egt | or | Pro

As for the MX3 seats. Designed by recaro? So they say.

The seat back? Don't know if it would be worth shipping cost, you are kinda far.

Yeah I got the sidskirts one day at the JY I saw them and took them cause they don't last long at all.

If you wan't I can keep my eye out for you some.

looks sharp, I might just have to do that, there is an unmolested EGT at my local yard that i might just take the bumper from if it's still there this weekend.

I have a 93 EGT now, I got the skirts and the wheels I wanted

I'm so happy.. I might be selling the factory wing, I have to find my camera charger though.

I think it looks ok , but I think you could get something better. maybe the gtx bumpers for the 323 ... or GTR bumper , or maybe even fab up a custom lower spoiler add on thing for the front end like Tweak ..
but hey if you wanna be original you have to do what you gotta do
good luck

well i know in my case, and probally a lot of other people too, price is a big concern. if i can spend $50 to get an EGT bumper and be a little different from the other pro's and 323's in the area, it's better then spending hundreds of dollars on some fiberglass thing from corksport. (i can put that money saved towards a turbo setup!!)

damn, all this bumper modification... i went to the junkyard, picked up a Protege SE bumper and fender... not a direct bolt on, some of the holes didn't line up, the fasteners are a little different on the 94 lx... if you guys are in the philly area, there are 2 escort gt's laying in the yard, both with rearend damage right off of pa 13, morrisville junkyard as of Monday May 12th, you'll walk out with the bumper shell for $22 bucks, open m-f, 8-5. have fun.
peace
