yeah, the stockers have grown back on me over the coase of the day. its cool, from the side the car looks almost stock. but theyll be on for a bit. they ride better and i can tell the weight difference when getting on it. id love the take the side moldings off but id have 10x more door dings than i do now. ppl arent to bright down here. thanks for the compliments guys. and i dunno why it looks extra shiny/greasy, lol. cf grill and orange sides are new.

i like that wheel alot. hotness
Bala your car looks hot ass hell! I normally don't like big wheels but those are looking nice.
Bled nearly 32oz of fluid through the brakes... and... VOILA! Holy crap the brake pedal feels about a million trillion billion gajioalsdfjikadsfldasion times better. Even better than before I started messing with them a few days ago. The new pads seemed to be pretty quiet as well, I didn't hear any squeaking yet. Hopefully that stays that way. I'll have to clean the wheels and see what the dusting is like as well.

yea i definitely like the lines on the car without those door guards cant wait to get home and get started
damn, that's lookin great man! Are those 18's? If so, they're some of the best looking ones I've seen on the P5.
The door guards / mouldings are gonna be one of my only aesthetic mods. To be completed after I finish all the performance stuff (should be about 3 weeks for that). Have a Ractive header and Ebay SRI w/ K&N filter goin on this weekend, and 3 weekends from now I should have illuminas w/ mazdaspeed springs installed. Get it aligned in the next week, then off with the mouldings

It's a PITA, but the results are worth it. There are a bunch of ways to get it done ... Try to do it when the ambient temp. is 70f + (or warm the work area with a hair dryer) I picked up some of this stuff at Pep Boys. I used a syringe to drip it in at the top of the guard, let it sit a few minutes, and start pullingaMaff said:The door guards / mouldings are gonna be one of my only aesthetic mods.

. Have plenty of shop rags on hand and follow up with more adhesive remover. I final buff with a paint cleaner/wax will erase any evidence they were there.
