Wasn't meant as an insult in any way. Sorry If I offended. I'm a young guy too and make less money than someone in my field who's fifty years old (typical Miata owner). Just making a practical statement, that's all. Maybe I'll do one in black so you guys can see a finished product.

Thanks. btw, all of my pricing includes shipping. It says it on my website, but I didn't point that out here.

The cost isn't necessarily in the materials, but these are labor intensive to make (though it'll cost me about $400 to get set up with the correct thickness of foam and right color of leather). I would use leather to match the center console so that it looks like a factory piece. Your console...

See this thread for some good pricing info. http://www.protege5.com/vbb230/showthread.php?s=&threadid=42628&perpage=15&pagenumber=1

Wouldn't be very feasible for me to do. Any competent upholsterer could make something for you to add to the back seat if you came up with a design.

New armrest mod? My girlfriend recently bought a P5 and I've noticed that the center armrest is fairly useless because it sits so low. I wanted to see how many people are interested in having their armrest modified so that it would be 1 inch taller, padded, and covered in Katzkin leather to...

It's still early for the 3 to sell well. Mazda has only recently started marketing the car, but they've been doing it heavily during the NFL playoffs. Most people aren't interested in cars and only know about something after they've seen an ad. We'll have a better idea of how the 3 is doing six...

I might be a sarcastic mofo, but at least I'm a helpful sarcastic mofo. ;) But honestly it's a pet peeve of mine when people post questions, info, etc. without bothering to read the thread, and I've seen that a lot around here in my short time on the forum. It reduces the helpfulness of the...

Well, I'm just trying to share some information and save people some time, but I suppose my attitude should really be that if people don't bother to read a whole thread then maybe they don't deserve to have their time saved. njaremka shared essentially the same info early on in this thread. I...

Does anybody actually read a thread before posting??? :confused: This is NOT a shift knob from a Miata. Like I said before, this is from the Mazda6 and the Mazda3. The particular dealer mentioned quoted $233 for it because they thought the guy was an idiot and would pay. Finish Line Performance...

That's not the knob from a Miata. It's from the Mazda6 and the Mazda3. Finish Line has it listed under their Miata section but that's only because it's starting to be popular with the Miata folk. Your dealer quoted you $233 because they take you for a moron.

Head over to NASIOC and you'll find lots of information. The following are the main companies that offer this product. Rockblocker.com Xpel.com Stonguard.com

I use Stoner's Invisible Glass on my windows. Newspaper to clean then follow it up with a microfiber towel. For the interior I use 303 aerospace protectant. It has a nice matte finish and a great UV filter. Probably the best stuff you can get, and a very versatile product. For the exterior I use...

How much taller of an armrest do you want? I might be able to help.

Weathertech has enough different patterns that I would assume you would receive ones that would seem to be custom fit. That said, I highly recommend Cocomats. They are steep at $100, but are custom fit and last forever. I've never seen anything more durable. Here's a pic of them in my Miata. I...

Must be Magnussen's, right? I think they were the only dealer with that many cars left. Marina was the only dealer with the color and options we wanted. It sure would be interesting to get an exact discount out of her...

For anyone in the bay area, Royal renewed the $6750 discount this week. http://personalshopper.sfgate.com/categories.asp?refid=&sesid=961268&cid=39&pg=71

If you look at Edmunds for my region you see two seperate $500 incentives with different start dates. It looks to me as though they issued the first incentive at the beginning of November, then an additional one at the beginning of December. Here are the details of their Graduate Program...

Sorry I can't help. We left the ad with the dealer.

Seems like a fair trade, but I sure won't guarantee that kind of a deal. I still shake my head at it. Royal must really be desperate to get rid of those cars. As for P5w3kids' point, you're exactly right. Being pre-approved for a loan is one of the best things you can do before you go to a...
