hey bruce, kdawg, txmzdspd2gen.... thanks for posting my pics here... I finally registered after txmzdspd2gen told me to check it out.

bruce, yup! the hoodscoop is from my previous hood that I salvaged from the wreck, sold to another member here who in turn sold it to txmzdspd2gen. how's the install coming around?

kdawg, i love what you've done to your ride.... especially those 3 holding on to it. I've seen your interior before and it's so cool... can't wait to see what you're gonna do with your seats to complete the look. no promises... but, i'll see what i can do about those skirts... they're around US$200 here for the 2 sides.

cablemirc, it is as stock a Mazdaspeed it can get just as bruce has mentioned ;)

TaiMaiShu, hook up with us when you get here.

k dawg..and bruce..so you guys think it will be easier to get the 95-96 jspec bumper and lip than the 97 ones?...i believe corksport dont even offer the lip for it...as per hunters..thats why he told me to bring back one but it was way too big for carry on and i even have to cut the side skirt cos they were charging me 900 bucks extra for it was too long....damn, i had it cut in front of them while i cry..hahaha....but it was all worth the tears...i got them put up right...i might do the 95-96 bumper...hey bruce...do u want the tuned by mazdaspeed emblem u can put it next to ur serial number by the windshiled...it all original and has a serial number....or like what they do they put it in the engine bay some where..ask jonas he has one...im getting andy to briing me one and some mazdaspeed stickers...his uncles coming over on the 14th...i wanna get this car fix up for the next show if not the NOPI...i wanna do my part to represent out club/car,,later a
hmm a tuned by mazdaspeed emblem , that doesn't sound bad. Any idea how much it will run me .

Well think of it like this. You could get the 95-96 bumper but I know that kris was saying that you would have to do some shaving to get it to go straight on. I also know that you will also have to fill the holes in the front. This is not hard to do, if you wanted to you could have a body man do it .

If you get the 97 bumper you benifit from a direct fit , but you will need a spoiler . You can get one custom made which to be honest is a good idea . I know that Patrick made one for his 97 and it turned out figin sweet. I think that would look nice for your car. Even a custom spoiler for your stock bumper would be sweet. Did you think to look into that? that may also work and save you some money.

wow , I never knew you had an accident , that explains the white hood I guess. I have been working on the swap but right now I am stranded waiting for ups to deliver the final peaces. I am hoping to have the car on the road by Saturday so I can take it to kent CT meet.
Sometimes I do wonder if I should have purchased a CL or a MAxima or something and just put rims on it and call it a day , but I don't know...
I don't really know how long I will be into this modding stuff to be honest.
Time will tell ...

anyway good work with the familia Andy, you of all people know that I have admired your car from day 1 .. lol I think you still remeber when you messaged me the photo's and I nearly lost my mind .. hahaha ..

ahh those were the days.

The white hood is where Ronald's hoodscoop was originally mounted on and I had repainted my original blue color before I got sandwiched last year and ended up re-making the entire car.

Geez, how long has it been... 3 years? Man, we've com a long way... of course I remember... I'll never forget the first forum with Hunter and the rest of us... I miss those days.

Man that really hurt my fealing... honestly A tear came to my eye.

but I saved the photo anyway. I need to get up off my but and prime my damn spoiler. I was thinking to try and get it wraped in carbon fiber or something. lol I wondered how that would look ..

btw: I do fully intend to put your photo's on my site and I do have all of them , I have just been trying to figure out a method of making the website easier to work on and configure when I need to do so.

otherwise. I hope everything is ok with you and family wise. Please also tell Jonas I said hello.

It truly flatters me for you to say that " Your car is truly and inspiration to me, Bruce, Pat and all of us other Jay-Dee-Em nuts!"

Thanks... it actually works both ways :) I'm currently getting the car face lifted... You may not recognize it afterwards and the only giveaway would be the color... It'll be done by the end of the month :rolleyes:
