Your a rock star!

I've already started dimensioning (is that a word?) under the hood. Going to try to throw something together in AutoCad and see what happens. I'll keep you posted if you want.

lol you use autocad and arent sure if dimensioning is a word? haha.

The rear wiper on your car is from a Mazda 6? Is that the whole arm (like I'd have to get it from Mazda?) or is it just the wiper blade? I love how clean it looks…nice car too BTW!

 

[devil_dog_mike]

Also…saw a Mazda 5 today…rear wiper on that looked really similar…is that the same wiper arm?

I have no idea if the 5's wiper arm will fit. Mines the whole arm from a 6wagon. You have to dremel the cap piece down. But other that that it's cake. Thanks btw!

Where did you buy the heat dam before the radiator.

CF part came from Isport who no longer makes them, CR3 Motorsports is making a version in aluminum

Woman, are you copying me?

The valve cover is a given, But you are the only other person I've seen with the same CAI as me. Not only do you have the same CAI, but you also got a red spectre filter for it! What the crap. My CAI was about $30 on ebay with free shipping. I went to Advance Auto and got a better filter (red of course)

Here is a full shot at night, nasty camera and nasty lighting

HAHAHAHAA PFFF I did the intake ages ago...we even have it turned so the logo faces up! That's too funny!
I did the same thing got the intake online and got the intake at pep boys I believe.

Was the ebay intake by the seller Insys? haha mine was.

 

[JDM_Pro5]

Since we seem to have similar taste, try these wheels. About $100 each. I'm shooting for the 17x7's in gunmetal for my car

Yes ma'am. The filter said made in the USA around the face of it. My friend got one of their intakes for his CRX so I figured I'll give it a try for $30. It was my first mod and I still use it to this day.

If you wanna loose the billets, you can get the knock-offs
It's a one-piece construction vs. a two-piece

^^^the XXR's are also a one piece...the billets are for show only.

*edit*I like the OZ's you have linked HK and of course the Works.
