I believe the Parma Mi4 bumper is still the same size as stock. If I have to, Ill just shave the universal Parma bumper down to the thin height, and cut it out as needed...

EDIT: Just test fitted a body I have cut out, and it seems the bumper is already quite a close fit to the Mazda Speed 6. Still, I like to custom fit bumpers as needed because I mount some bodies further forward or further back for steering purposes, and I like to have a bumper to match.
Try the bumper of the Mi2 EC. This one is a bit thicker and longer in the front. I will try to find a photo of my Mi3 and Mi4 where you can see the difference.

Edit: Found the picture in the Front the Mi3 with Mi2 EC bumper and in the back the Mi4 with stock bumper. Its about 5mm longer.
