Replacing front metal crash bumper bar structure
Posted: Fri Oct 11, 2019 12:46 pm
I'm not sure what this piece is actually called:

Picture borrowed from https://www.miataturbo.net/race-prep-75/removing-metal-structure-behind-front-bumper-60104/
It's behind the front bar/nose cone and is the metal crash/bumper bar that has a black plastic bumper fitted to it.
Are they easily replaced? Looks to be welded in place with a bolted on front cap on each side. If so, are NA and NB ones interchangeable?
Mine has a bit of a bend/dent in it. A previous owner must of had a minor front ender previously. Thought if it's not a huge amount of extra hassle I can get it sorted while having the car resprayed.
