why did u pay extra for iridium?!?! the v-power work perfectly :(

Just wanted to give them a try, more curiosity than anything plus I had enough Canadian Tire money to make up the difference. lol

Kinda of like regular 5W-30 works but synthetic is better, maybe gas mileage will increase a bit or motor smoothness.
 
i have had these in for like two months but i havent had time to post them

A little dab of silicon muted a rattle coming from behind the center panel, immediately above the fan control dial. Thank god, that thing was driving me nuts.

Got a free pair of shades in the process! The previous owner's were lost behind the glove box! :)
 
Got the smoked overlays on the tails. I did the passenger side first and messed it up a little bit. I had my heater going in the garage and I figured I would heat up the overlay a little bit to make it a little more pliable. Well, I heated it up a bit too much and made it a little too pliable........As I was wrapping it around the light I ended up stretching it a bit much and it got a little thin in the middle. Doesn't look terrible but I might have to take it off. I think I have enough left over to make another one. I didn't heat up the driver side one near as much and it turned out pretty nice. I noticed too that I really need to take off my emblems and re-paint em.

Man, looking at that rear shot really re-inforces the thought that I NEED to do the Mazda 6 rear wiper mod..........(boom07)
 
Gave the P5 some good lovin today! lol Seafoamed her, washed her, and washed the engine bay. Got an autocross to do tomorrow so got to lover her before I abuse her. lol
 
Just put in the SLS front motor mount replacing the krusty half broke oem with rr racings inserts. Also got the billet master door lock bezel on that I ordered with the mount. Time for a car wash now......................
 
a week after i got my turn signals tinted, and somone backs into my car shattering them. Awesome. Anybody selling some JDM tails? I need some new ones.
 
Ya know, I coulda swore someone had a set in the for sale section right now.............

I was thinkin the same thing. Tails look cool but how much back up lighting you gonna have? Guess it's not that important that often tho......

Bastards. Did they leave a note?
 
I'm gunna venture a guess at not much. But, you make good point. Don't really need em much. I think I need to fix the passenger side one.....The more I look at it, the first thing I see is the gap of clear lens where I stretched the material too thin.........damnit !!

me personally, i'd lose the engine cover... the rest of that looks hella nice... especially the center console... maybe it's just me, but when i pop the hood i wanna see engine, not an engine cover... i've never been a fan of those things

they came into my store and talked to my manager, and then to me. He was very nice and is covereing the price, so i have to just get the new tail lights, then get them tinted again. Then he will pay me back.
