Body kit question?

Post by MrMazda92 »

I tried searching, forgive me if I missed something guys.

I was wondering if there was a urethane kit that had a front bumper/lip that will be higher than my stock one? I know the answer is probably no, but if anyone would know... it would be you guys. Thanks again!

Are you positive? Is there any way that you guys can think of to increase my ground clearance without making my car look ridiculous?
Thanks in advance!

There is no eurethane body kits available for the Mx-3. If you want something higher, the MazdaSpeed front bumper sits about 1" higher than a GS w/lip.

My goal is to stop tearing my front lip apart on driveways around town :( No matter what angle I hit them at, several local ones just can't be cleared.

The mazdaspeed front bumper? Forgive my ignorance, but where might I find one... and for how much? Thanks guys!!

I can't understand how it's being scraped as it really isn't very pronounced, the only fix I could see would be to take the lip off completely. :|
