Before and After photos of your Mazda

When I saw him coming up on me so fast I let off the brake so I could change the impact into some forward momentum which pushed me into the old lady in a buick in front of me...pushed the front end off about an inch...required a new hood and frame alignment...the impact from the rear crunched the back behind the wheels but car was still driveable...amazingly the back glass didnt pop and was used in the fix. 2 year old son was in back and was fine...original interior panels were all reused...its amazing how safe these little cars are so rest assured.

His tow hook did slice the back bumper like a knife..looked like it got prison shanked.

5k pain and suffering on top of medical bills from scans etc. 1500 diminutive value. paid for a myrtle beach trip, put money in savings account, got me hids on all lows and fogs, tinting, wheel locks, cargo tray etc.

Scary as hell...and messed me up for a couple of months mentally...but it was a safe car we were all ok.

Thats quite a tear down they took the doors off just to paint it or did you have something else done?
 
I am actually thinking about a two-tone paint job on my 3. That looks awesome man!

doors had a lot of dents an some waves in them. so we took them off to get them smooth bc the green would show every imperfection

Not 100% sure. A dark teal greenish color with I dunno. Might just repaint it 1 color. Just an idea for a future project.

Well in that case I didn't even notice. It just says before and after pictures of your Mazda. Sorry, lol.

My post can be deleted if need be. lol
 
Well I love all Mazda's I should have started this thread somewhere else. I allow all Mazda's and anyone is welcome to post your baby on here. I do not discriminate :) so have fun.

That sounds interesting. but make sure whatever color you go with, make sure it doesnt over power the car. I love my green but without the back to break it up I think it would be to much.
