Brackets are in production!

 

Awesome! Got an email from Bayson R about the new grill insert coming, I may only have to tear off the bumper once!

 

Link to thread with pics of said insert?

 

It popped up on one of the mazdaspeed facebook groups a while back looking to see if i can find it. It's pretty much a clone of the nextmod/garage vary grille but is supposed to clip in like the OEM and not have massive gaps
[doublepost=1485909517][/doublepost]Found it:

 

I spoke to them and saw what they did. It's supposed to bee like plug and play with modifications and it comes with instructions
[doublepost=1485920718][/doublepost]

I was going back and forth with that

 

Niiiiice. I may have to get one. Price point? No info on their website yet. I know they're finalizing, etc...

 

so the last email i got from them was to expect it to be $250 shipped to anywhere in the US

 

Yup $250 shipped. You have to email them if like one early. They have few in production

 

I have been charged for the brackets so I'm guessing shipment is soon. I'll be prepping boxes this week.

Those who have ordered are getting 2 decals per order. Pm me with your color choice, options in the MSO store.

 

And they have shipped!!

Hoping to be able to ship next day, but if I can't, will pack em up on a Sunday on my one day off.

 

That was fast. The instructions though...lol

 

Again, @Redline went over his install in his thread. He will make an updated thread once received, but it's pretty simple. Mount the bracket, install the pin in the top slot, line up with the bumper like in the gen1 kits. Drill and install the latches.

Photo how-to will be done once he gets the hardware, of course.

 

Awesome

 

GenPu Bumper Fitment fix Brackets are HERE! I also work late tomorrow so tomorrow morning I'm prepping to ship out the orders!

If you have not pm'd me what color decals you want, please do ASAP! I'll pick colors if no reply.

I have 3 extra sets ordered. Email webmaster@mazdaspeeds.org if interested!

Uh oh... I notice a discrepancy. Look how only the left one has the stand-off in this pic, which is essential:

And only the front one has a stand-off in this pic:

Both of them should be like the left one in the top pic, and the bottom one in the bottom pic (have a stand-off, not just a bent angle). They're supposed to be mirror-images of each other. Without that stand-off, a ton of extra washers will need to be used and the geometry won't be correct. The stand-offs on the other side (the long ones) look fine. @Raider
[doublepost=1486438624][/doublepost]Both sets of standoffs are supposed to be on both brackets (Ken lengthened them a little more than seen in this pic). Regardless, they're mirror images of each other, and each bracket needs a short stand-off on the tire-side, and a long stand-off on the side closest the front of the car:
The longer standoffs are on both brackets too, so they look fine.

This is what happens with no standoff there - you need a ton of washers and you still may not have enough clearance, depending on your stud placement (I didn't):
