What have you done to your P5 today?

looks really good! what clear did you use over top of the vht, and how many coats? i'd like to get mine nice and shiny like yours are :)

btw, how did you tint the third brake light? take it off, mask around it or what? i haven't done mine yet and i'd like to.
Just like Chris said about the third brake light. I did remove it to paint it. I also had my buddy redo my bumper lenses, side markers, headlights, and my tails. He used a spray gun with some tint paint, then he shot about 3-4 coats of clear on top. Yeah, its VERY shiny! If someone is thinking about getting the smoked Rockblockers, you might not be happy if you do any night time driving. I have HIDs and felt like I had my lights off. thats just my opinion though.

the new tails look real nice man
 
I have pondered tinting my third brake light as well....maybe this spring/summer.

As of 5 minutes ago, watched some very scattered snowflakes descend on her. Might actually get to see how these tires will handle the snow.
 
My 3rd brake light is tinted with gerbervision. (the stuff that businesses use as graphics over windows of their vehicles)

Catch can install and radiator overflow installed and crancase breather filter. Red samco hoses on the way. Radiator shroud and aluminum door sills in the works on the machine right now!

looks good! i may have to see if i can find someone to do the same for me... as for the po po getting on your case, obviously it varies by city, etc, but i've never had an issue *knocks on wood* that's why i've got an extra set of stock tails in reserve, jic :D

Good idea with the extras. If it ever happens my buddy said he can get the paint off, so Im not too worried. He got the VHT off like it was nothing! I am very happy with the outcome. Now if I could just find some LED brake,turn, and back up bulbs.
 
I ordered: Millenia PCV valve, WeaponR Coolant Overflow bottle (the stocker just doesn't fit in there anymore), Mazdaspeed Oil Cap and the JDM Mazdaspeed Radiator Cap. :)
 
Put Nylock nuts on all the rear sway bar enlinks. Hopefully that will finally solve my self-removing endlink problem.

I had the smoked rockblockers on there, but they were driving me crazy! I couldnt see the road like I thought Id be able to. So, I peeled them off and sprayed 1 coat of tint on the headlights, followed by 3 coats of clear. I am totally happy now!
