URGENT: Is NB8A's bonnet identical to NB8B's bonnet

[BadBong]

Hi everyone,

This is fairly urgent since there's a NB8A at the wreckers nearby that I might be able to get my hands on (which is cheaper than repairing my current bonnet);

The important question is: Will a NB8A bonnet fit the NB8B body PERFECTLY?

I know that their headlights are different, which makes their front bumpers different. But I'm hoping that the bonnets should be interchangeable?


Cheers,
Vic

US version of the NB Collision Parts Guide claims the same bonnet for both NCY0-52-31XJ

Good Luck

Yes it is.

[BadBong]

Thanks guys. Will hopefully get a good price from the wreckers tomorrow or otherwise I'll have to look at aftermarket bonnets...

[Hammer]

Doesn't Mania have any spare ones?

Also try Boyracer, he seems to have a lot of spare parts laying about.

[BadBong]

Will try both.

Not sure I'll get a good enough price to make some sort of 'saving' though

Mazda should be able to tell you if the bonnets are the same. You would reckon any of the MX5 specialists would also know.

[Boyracer]

Bonnets are the same I don't have one to sell.
