Recently clipped an elk and hit a wall with my MM in the good ol' Rocky Mountains. Just wondering if anyone has any leads on the cheapest, yes aftermarket front bumper or if anyone has any OEM bumpers laying around for whatever reason (I know you parts hoarders have something ;) ) Anywhoo I was not injured, and I hope that damn elk was... Parts list is as follows...

Front bumper, both headlights, both sidemarkers, foglights (I know 03-05 Miata MX5's have the same fogs), Header panel and I believe that's all...

:help:

Don't have a massive budget, normally would have made an insurance claim and used OEM parts but I just don't have the budget to raise my insurance prices or pay 1300 bucks for a bumper... Help a fellow marauderer out! Thanks all

I priced out the parts already and found the cheapest of everything I could find and came up with a rough estimate of before shipping and paint to be around 872...

As I stated in my OP I hit a wall shortly after... I had to make a claim not too long ago so I can't afford to either A. Be dropped, or B. Have my insurance go through the roof. I have the money to fix it, I'm just trying to see if anyone here has any leads on cheaper parts before I start going crazy ordering. I have already done some leg work, just seeing if anyone has any good deals on here. Thanks though

Nope .... the animal has to buy his own insurance. ;)
