I ordered the FEED combo lights from RHDJapan, along with a FEED fuel collector box for in the tank, a Works Bell hub (my Daikei hub is still working OK but the plastic surround cracked and this hub was on sale), RE Amemiya sleek light covers (the knockoffs I bought from someone look like they're a little bulged), and seat belt straps for Spirit R seats, but I think they're the same ones from the stock seats (these are no longer available through Mazda). The FEED combo lights were supposed to take a few weeks to make, but all of the stuff is about ready to ship only a few days later. WOOHOO!! I've been looking for the lenses to cover the combo lights, but I never could find them. I finally found where I can get them...except I can't haha.

One of the guys on 7club said he got his several years ago directly from FEED. The only problem is you have to prove you own a legit FEED bumper in order to get them. Oh, and they're like $280 for the pair. Yeaahhhhhhh I don't think so. So it looks like I'll be making my own. I wanted mine to wrap under the front like on the Mazdaspeed GTC bumper anyway, and I don't think it'll be too hard to do it. People usually use super hot (but not quite boiling) water to heat up the lexan and then shape it really fast. My only concern would be falling into the gap over the light hole, but I'm thinking about covering the current lights to fill the gap and hoping they don't get damaged by the heat.
