And the best part is that it's cheaper than buying the whole C6!

The Tiger Shark front and rear fascias are very nice. Someday I would like to have them on my car.

TigerShark front fascia is beautiful, IMHO. Good choice but please do not confuse a C5 TS fascia with the stock C6 Mazda fascia....

Wouldn't mind less overhang on the front myself. If nothing else, just to make it easyer to get it on my trailer. Extra low profile race tires and dropped to the stops does't help.
