Nice... Ya my mazda dealer book the we carry here at the dealer doesnt have a illustration either. And they only come primed wich sucks

 

[NorthHillMazda]

I had a set of 18 mazdaspeed rims that have been sitting here for years going into service.....then we have a chronic issue of lift gate rust here in Canada, so I odered a new one today and a bunch of window trim that needs to be tidied up.
dangerous being in the parts dept. when you own a mazda.
Just proving to my wife you can have a NICE car and not have to have a large bank payment to go along with it.
I have a 10k budget...let's see how I do.

 

[visiongt9506]

Hahaha ya being in the parts department makes me wanna order a ton of s*** for the car, lookin at the accessory books and online. Dam i wish i had a nice budge to play with lol. Im glad that my p5 dosnt have mush rust just a little bit on the rear fenders but then i have that big dent to make up for it haha

 

[NorthHillMazda]

I got sorta lucky on the rear fenders....only one has an issue. lol
It'll all get sorted at the bodyshop...gonna have to call in a couple favors on this one.

I'm focusing more on the interior for the wife.....heated seats,auto start, decent stereo etc. outside is pretty much done now (famous last words) once I get the stuff on order wrapped up.

 

[visiongt9506]

Nice... Ya im not that big on interior, i just put in a wink mirror thats it ( best thing i ever did works wonders when having 2 kids haha ) . Im goin more for exterior looks, i will be lowering the car within the next 2 weeks and im goin to start saving for wheels so hopfully next spring they will be on. I have a few more things i wanna do, rear wiper delete, body work and repaint, posibly get rid of stock roof rack and get a thule rack, and some mud flaps/ guards.

Looking good.

Got any more front lips? lol

 

[visiongt9506]

Ya i will be posting them up when i get home from work. I was going to do it this morning but things got a little hectic at work

 

[visiongt9506]

ok now that i finally have some time to post the pics i took this morning before work, i just snapped a few

put the WINK mirror in and now i can start to sticker bomb it lol

with mazdaspeed lip and WRX lip

random side shots

next is lowering it and i have a valve cover project i started

 

[NorthHillMazda]

that mirror is crazy looking.
what's the story behind it? I've never seen one before.
I like the wrx addition. what did you use to attach it?

 

[visiongt9506]

The mirrors have 5 pannels and it alows you to see everything!!!! Haha good for blindspots too. As far as the lip i just used the harware they gave me just a couple self tappers and then i had to use a few more to make sure it was secure

 

[NorthHillMazda]

I should really start taking a few pics as well I suppose.
looks good dude.

my wife NEEDS that mirror....badly!

 

[visiongt9506]

$20 shipped on ebay lol

 

[visiongt9506]

so i decided to put on my stock probe swirlies becasue the stock p5 wheels where to skinny and mines were all bent. these wheels are wider and stick out more wich i love, and i just ordered my megan springs 2 days ago so i will be lowering the car by this week end

 

[NorthHillMazda]

lol. I ordered the same, what drop did you go with?

 

[visiongt9506]

all the megan springs are the same 1.9"rear and 2.0" drop front... i believe or its the other way around

 

[grant_jr]

man looks great i was about to suggest that you drop it next but seem like you got all your bases cover.

keep it up!

 

[visiongt9506]

thanks man, ya lowering the car this weekend. next week im goin to restore the headlights and i have and HID kit already on its way to me lol.

 

[MasonMetcalfe]

[visiongt9506]
