[falkofire]

that will look mint....blue that is

 

[Protege5Gurly]

Well .... total cost shipped to NJ was $1400 ... HOWEVER, the shop who ordered it messed up a bit and the whole order took 1 year and 2 weeks to FINALLY get to my house. Due to their mistake, they knocked a few hundred off the kit

damn girl... watch ur back... im comin to ur house... j/k

 

[Protege5Gurly]

I must say tho, it is definitely one of the best in quality kits I have seen. Gel coated like Aerogear or AutoEXE products, screw holes pre-drilled .. plus, lots of color flyers came with it, 2 nice MINT BLUE vinyl decals, and best of all ... a raised GEL COATED MINT BLUE badge for the trunk lid

WOW!! That is one of the best looking kits I have seen yet. I need just the front end and the side skirts. To bad rear bumper won't fit. Beautiful kit though Congrats! P5 Gurly!

Pardon my ignorance, But what exactly does a gel coat do for you? Is it a promoter for paint like a really kickass primer? I have know autobody experience so I don't have a clue? Somebody help I am drowning here!

WHAO! nice! how does that back fit up? i read something about a lot of cutting needs to be done to make it match up? well nice job and sucks about the shipping time. planning to repaint the whole ride? peace - chris

Mintblue kit

Very nice girl, Hope to see pics once its done, are you still planning on going to Nopi? I hope so so i can check out the ride. Keep us posted.

congrats....

Can someone please calrify if the back will fit? With or without modification? PLEASE!

 

[Protege5Gurly]

OK ...

1. Gel Coat -- extremely nice surface that requires ALOT less prep before paint.

2. The rear looks like it will fit with some fussin around. I think the lips that wrap into the wheel wells will need to be shortened a bit. From what we have seen you cant just put the bumper over the stock .. it WILL need to be shaved and the back of the car raised up and the MB piece slid in from the bottom up.

3. Repaint ... no not yet ... just painting the kit and blending into the car. Next year will probably be the full color change.

4. Nopi ... DEFINITELY ... I have quite a list of other things I still need to really make my mark at Nopi .. but it WILL be ready in time. (2thumbs)

Wao girl, congrats. Now I envy you. I have wanted the MB since the first pic posted in this website. Maybe when I go to NJ I can see this "beast"

 

[Protege5Gurly]

yeah it appears the mintblue rear is made for the JDM rear bumper which is a few inches shorter, I have yet to figure out the fit.

you've got to love a girl that 1) drives a mazda 2) is down with mint blue and 3) has lights wrapped around her bed's headboard (bowdown)

seriously though.. mad props on the mintblue..

 

[Volley2six]

Seeing a MintBlue kit on a girl's bed is just....wow....

 

[Protege5Gurly]

Its actually my bf's room that I share with him at his place until our apartment is done being built.

Hehe the lights were done for X-Mas and we liked the look when lit up so we left them.
