Forget performance. Go VIP!! Save your money up and make the car P-I-M-P!

I never thought I would type that out. But I'm serious.

really....I don't think this is a car where you can do a ton performance wise, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong guys, but this isn't exactly a track car. I'd take off the vinyl for the same reason you're taking off the wing, this isn't the type of car that lends itself to vinyl. The rims aren't horrible, but I think they're way too 1999 and you'd do better with something more VIP or sedan style....regardless look into something to drop it a bit. Don't try and make this car something it's not. It's not the same type of car as a cougar, you're looking at style not performance with what you bought. Just get on that vinyl/spoiler ASAP. Right now I'd just point and laugh at it thinking it was a 16y/o who got his parents car and saw fast and furious too many times.

So any updates? Did you pull the vinyl and other s*** off of it?

It's got a lot of potential, just gotta utilize it. The wheels aren't too bad, either.

Like i said i traded the guy i got this from a 99 Cougar with the tranny going out so like i said before i think i got a great deal. I'm on SSI disability so my money situation isnt all that great to begin with to fix up a car. I get $637/month, so i kinda got stretch that out with bills and trying to do stuff to the Milli and that's kinda hard to do. I really dont wanna pull the wing off just yet cuz then it would have holes in the trunk lid and that would probably let water in, so until i can get em filled and get just a reg. spoiler on there i'm not going to mess with it right now. As for the vinyls i think it is ok, nothing spectacular, but how many Milli's have ya seen with vinyls...probably not that much...so that makes it unique. I like to be unique and dont like to be like everybody else, so i'll probably just leave those on and not fool with it. As for the rims i got them off of craigslist for $375, when i had some of my back pay money. I had some 18 inch Velox VX-8's from the Cougar i just bought to go on it, but they are 4 lug and wouldnt work, so i said hey screw it these will do for now. So all in all the way it is now...i'm not gonna mess with it much, it's a head turner and all the people i have shown it too they liked it. I know they might not be Mazda inthusiast or anything like everybody on here, but they liked it is all that counts, and plus it's better then the Cougar i was gonnna have to shell out like $2000 and more to fix...cuz it was a mess to begin with. But i appreciate everybodies input and critiques on the car. Thanks!!!

just a suggestion on filling in the spoiler holes:

i took some clear tape, taped over the holes and took clear silicone sealant and put some in the inside of the trunk using the tape as backing and removing the tape when the sealant has dried. looks funny but my old wing looked funnier
