Here's mine the day after I picked her up.

Proper wash, clay bar, wax, and dressing.
Dealership just doesn't do it right.

[jomil91]

u know, I hate those smiles but that pic makes it look a lot better since u can see it well lol..

 

[xsists]

ouch... I remember back in the day Mazduh ran into problems just like that when he was slammin his 3.

 

[Kaze]

haha it will happen to any slammed car if the driver isnt careful. especially going up ramps and stuff. on a full lock, tire will catch the fender and if the suspension compresses (mine happened as i was getting out of the driveway) and well...yea this is a result of that. im probably gonna just buy a new fender.

 

[MazdaSwede]

Thats sucks dude. All the more reason for me not to lower mine. (even though i kinda want to).

 

[xsists]

lol, just springs won't do that, s***, almost any coilover made for your car wont go that low. its when you modify the coilovers to get that low when you run into issues.

Yep exactly

You won't even tuck tire on 18s with BC coilovers maxed out the way they come from the factory.

BCs lowered all the way down not modified at all on 18s lol.

my fender looks much better here lol

 

[Chefsp0t]

I would at least pull the wheel and go to town with a rubber mallet wrapped in a towel and a block of wood. You could probably even it out some and make it look a little neater.

 

[MazdaSwede]

if youre lucky. or you can make it worse. id rather have a pro do it.

You also have a crease near the headlamp lens and the bumper cover also is tweaked. Doing bodywork, I notice stuff like that.

I had to redo the paint on my front end this week. A year ago, I reshot the front clip because of vandalism (won't say what words were scratched on the car). I had to prime, paint and clear back then. I notice last week that the paint on the fenders and bumper started peeling. I had to strip the paint and completely redo the prime/sealer, base and clear this week. I also noticed the bumper paint was cloudy, which is caused by the bumper plastic gasses going through the paint. I had to heat up the bare plastic bumper to 170 degrees for 4 hours then do a thinner wash then water wash, and a reducer wash to get rid of the excess gas material and seal the entire bumper and redo the paint.

Picssss...

After picture. The hood and grille were not touched.

Yes they are blue coated. Even though JapanParts sells them:

They are fogs from a RX-8 without the JapanPart price
