Hi! I'm putting my mx-3 back on the road after it sat in my garage for over a year.
I'm moving to Calgary for work and need to get a new exhaust system. Could anyone recommend a place to get a decently price performance system installed? I'm going to be using the car for my job so I don't want anything deafening.
I also need a front bumper, does anyone have one for sale or know a wreckers where I could pick one up?
I Hope I get to know the mx community in Calgary!

I've dealt with Minute muffler on Center Street just south of 16th ave and they did some good work for me. Would recommend them.

Good luck finding a bumper. Those are the first things to get ripped off a car at the wrecker :)
Pick an' Pull down on Glenmore & Barlow and Forest Lawn wreckers have a few MX3s every now and then, but your best bet is to just hit the Yellow pages and start dialing.

Thanks for the recommendation. I was going to wait until I got to Calgary to fix the exhaust but the noise is driving me crazy so I've got the car booked in at a place called ABC muffler and hitch in Edmonton for tomorrow. They quoted me a price of $499 for a full exhaust with a magnaflow resonator and muffler which seems to be a decent price in Edmonton.

There are two mx-3's in Edmonton pick and pull but the front bumper was gone on one and the other had a big hole in it. I'm going to Karbasher in Edmonton tonight so fingers crossed.
