From all the pictures I see of the sedan, they are of the Kenstyle kit with a model with the basic fogs on. As I know it no on else where has the bumper situation like we do with the basic fogs instead of the sporty fogs etc. Sporty bumper and no sporty bumper and the myriad of combinations.

You can have a 2.0 with the sport package, does that make the care identical to a 2.3 GT w/o the GFX?

Well so my question is will the kenstyle : http://www.kenstyle.co.jp/usa/product/mazda3b.html

Fit my 2005 GT w/o GFX.

I think it would IF, basic fogs means sporty bumper (w/o GFX) means its the same as mine. This is based on being told that the most basic mode;\'s bumper is somehow different.

ok let me rephrase for your benefit. there is the GFX bumper and there is the SPORT BUMPER WITHOUT GFX, which comes with basic fogs. And there is the most basic bumper which comes w/o fogs. I was told by flipspeed and others that the SPORT BUMPER w/o GFX is identical with the GFX except for the FOG LIGHTS.

Hence my question.

To answer your question

Clay... Migiddy has a mazda3 GT without GFX... I believe its a basic gs bumper but he has a 2.3 engine. check his sig he has a pic of his car.

Does he have a Kenstyle kit? Because I know what I have and if he has a 2.3 w/o GFX I know what he has LOL but what I want to know is if anyone here has the kenstyle kit and what they \'have\'.

How about you just buy a knock-off kit and save yourself some cash

i have to say this kit is probably the closest looking lipkit as the kenstyle but for the sedan with gfx package

Not feeling it.... Maybe its the angles of the pictures...But doesnt the kit look a bit too big?


SABIO... I agree just get the knock off version...Your only paying hard cash for the brand name

the side skirt has to be attached to the body such that the front slips in and the rear comes out a little. Ryan got this shop to installed it the way i did after i took some pics for him. The reason is that, the skirt can\'t get strength and scratch if u install it normally. One thing about these kits are the plastic MIGHT warp under high heat when they boil the paint.
