Hi
thanks to someones brilliant parking skills i have a cracked bumper grille. Does anyone know where you can pick a new one up for cheap.

Also how do you go about getting the old one out. I dont fancy paying a garage to change it for me when i can do it myself!!!

Cheers

Which one do you need, upper, lower?

lower

I am pretty sure they click in, but it's very tricky, if I remember correctly, to get to them without removing the bumper, but possible.
If you get it up on axle stands you should be able to get underneath and contort your arm enough to get to them all

On the pre-facelift they are held in with screws. I don't know about the post-face lift.



You can see here in-between my numberplate brackets there is a bit going across with two screw holes in it, this is on both sides and secures the middle section on each side, there may be more along it but I can't remember, it has clips holding it on as well I believe.

You will probable need to take off the bumper to swap the lower grill. If your lowered you may need to jack up the car to take off the bumper. It's not too difficult to take off and once you've done it once you'll be able to do it any time you ever need again with ease.

Lower grille on the 2.0l sport clips in Bumper off or if you can get access from underneath by removing the under tray

Mazda dealer charge Me around £40 for a new'un . Quotes for scrappers was near 60quid mark for used

Nice one guys! i shall have fun dealing with it later. I managed to get a new one for £25.90 online. I did ask the dealer and they wanted £33 which wasn't to bad but mite as well save some money where i can.
