Thanks Eric/Werm for the pic!

Gah! if your car was a hatchback it would be so perfect!!!

But it looks pretty damn good as a sedan

 

[Drizz-OH!]

Lol. If it was a coupe it would be perfect. The hatch's are alright, but I think the Sedan looks cleaner.

 

[Tungsten6]

I like both but i like the hatches lines better (we are both biased though)

Resurfaced my OEM blank rotors today and put them back on. Stopping distance has definitely decreased compared to my slotted ones. D) Also removed my throttle body spacer in attempt to richen up the AFR a bit.

Both will be up for sale as soon as I can take pics if anyone is interested.

Screwed a few D-Rings into the back of my sub box today and rubber tie down-ed it to my rear floor bar. I'm not sure if the bar really has a purpose other than looks, but now its my anti-sliding-subwoofer-box-mount. Also adjusted my exhaust a bit to make the tips more even.

Sup guys! Not a whole lot of updates lately. Replaced my side markers with some legit smoked ones last week. The fitment and quality of the new ones completely pwns the Anzo's I previously had. Redid my rear brakes today (now running Hawk HPS pads all-around), repainted my calipers and re-rolled my rear fenders to hopefully stop the extremely slight rubbing from the lower stance. Need to post some new pics but I've been super backed-up processing pics for some weddings and other car shoots I've done lately. Hope all your rides are coming along nicely!

Lookin forward to new pics ^^

Thanks bro! Was gonna take some new ones this weekend, but Thurs-Fri somebody decided one of my windows would look better smashed in and busted, so I had to put new pics on hold.

 

[Drizz-OH!]

Renewed my registration and ordered the Mazdaspeed CF license plate frame from Mazda Motorsports. Planning to do the rear emblem in satin black to match once the frame arrives. Got the busted window replaced, but still waiting to get it tinted.

 

[mglavina]

How much for the frame? I checked at one point and it was like $40 I think for one :|

 

[Drizz-OH!]

It was $35 plus shipping thru MMS. Last time I saw it at the dealership it was $49.99, so not bad for a fake cf frame, lol. I've been told it chips so I'm probably going to clear coat it before installing.

 

[Drizz-OH!]

Faux-CF license plate frame installed. Rear evil-m emblem painted satin black. Also picked up a new helmet today. Went with the HJC AR10 in black since it's Snell SA2010 rated, lightweight, and looks ******* awesome.

 

[mglavina]

Helmet looks dope in black, waiting on pics on new rear end no homo lol

 

[Drizz-OH!]

^Hahaha. Will take some as soon as I can get my rear window retinted. And my tint guy got injured at his day job, so IDK when that will be.

 

[Drizz-OH!]

The Drizzstig!

Washed the 6 for the first time this year I think. Also picked up a set of wheels/tires for the track from a friend. Drag DR-33 wheels with Dunlop Direzza Star Specs! Yaayyy grip!
