What have you done to your Mazda6 today?

[MZR-6i]

about to buy some rear sway bars.......

 

[kahmikahze]

I feel I'll run mine into the ground...or just buy an STi or Evo VIII

then again, this close to Canada, I could get an R32...

My wife and I have a pact that we will drive our cars until they hit 200K miles, or repair costs make it impractical to keep them. She has a 2004 Volvo S60 2.5T with 117,000; it just got a timing belt and new shocks. My 2006 MS6 has 63,000 on the odo. She is complicating things by politicing for my car when it's time for her to get a new one (she's always so self-sacrificing!), which would put me up first. Either way, I'd love to have an M3 or a CTS-V. Those are really the only cars I lust after, and they may be within reach when she finishes school in two years.

A week or so ago I sheared one of my IC cover bolts (actually it was my wife who was putting it back on) and this weekend I finally got around to trying to remove it... with disappointing results. Now I have a sheared bolt stuck in the mounting tab, with a snapped off extractor stuck in the middle of that. I had read that those things weren't very good, but I tried to go the cheap easy route anyway and I was duly punished for attempting it. The car has to go in to the body shop this week for the paint guys to buff out a few runs from when the rear bumper was done recently, so I'll ask if they have a better tool/method there.

 

[wannabe]

drill it out and re-thread. its really the only way. sucks though, those extractors are really tough to drill out.

I know they sell the badgeless grille but has anyone attempted just painting the factory one black and if yes do you have any pics..this one is a photoshop....I'm debating if I like it

 

[bova80]

you could try doing the stock grill with some plasti-dip that way if you don't like it your just peal it off.

What is this Plasti-dip you speak of? I was thinking vinyl wrap

 

[Tungsten6]

Its a spray on plastic. If you decide ou dont like the way it looks you can just peel it right off.

 

[bova80]

it's like $6 a can at home depot, lowes has it to but i think its $7 there.

 

[Tungsten6]

And I am considering painting my grill that way with plastic dip. Have been for awhile.
Did this PS awhile ago

I think it complements the black on the fogs nicely.

Get The hell out...and that really works?

Yeah I had my grille done like Tungste just posted for like 3 months until I bought a 3bar OEM grille. My neighbor had his miatas wheels done with that stuff and he ran i through a WI winter and it was still pretty intact come spring.
