It's cool how this thread is still alive and my 323 is history.
Well in Puerto Rico if any of u guys go on vacation over there don't be surprise if u see a bunch of BG mazdas with Cut bumpers front and back. It's the cheapest way. I did it because I pulled up next to a Protege at a stop light and did a double take. When I seen I much better it looked and short.
Check out this one

anymore pics of pro's and or 323's with short bumpers?
thanks ryan

[ryan1]

im guessing cuz you cant keep your crash braces on, maybe thats why

[southerncross]

ok, fine then. note the gap under the taillights. i just cant get it to sit right. im going to get another bumper and try again. i dont so much care about the crash braces. . . i have a spare chassis.

good attempt tho!
