My GF and I were going for a drive a few hours ago and in the process of changing lanes in this treacherous snow, the car lost control, slide to the other side of the road then back across both lanes, over the curb, up the sidewalk and into another curb of a parking lot.. Not a good night.

Now I know how to do most bodywork, being a VW owner I'm use to things falling off my car and needing some repairs :P I just don't know where to find a cheap lower grille for the bumper, two of the clips broke off and that's the only thing I won't be able to fix tomorrow without buying parts.

She drives a 2010 Mazda 3 GT with the 2.5L engine and the lower grilles have fog lights in them, the light it self is untouched, it's just the upper clips cracked off cause it's so cold so they didn't flex at all.

This is her car at the beginning of fall.


This is the bumper now


I wanted to fix this before xmas but now after looking at the lower grille, it doesn't seem that likely anymore. I can at least fix the paint but I still don't know where to order a cheap replacement lower grille with fog light cut out for the passenger side.

I found the fog light kit on a Mazda parts site for $288 but that's for the whole light kit, I only need the plastic grille that houses it. Other then that, the closest I found was the Driver side lower grille from a non fog light model out of a salvage car for $60 bucks, so I'm looking for something similar to that price range.

Thanks in advance to any help finding this part.
