What have you done to your P5 today?

Buzzkill. Rear-ended mod. Worse than it looks - creased 1/4 panel, cracked tail light, missaligned hatch, obviously fubar'd bumper. F#*k.

well i believe that it's the worlds duty to try and eliminate the threat of a new 4cyl car coming to all types of tracks and dominating. so, slowly, one by one they try and take it out. mines been in about 3 wrecks, and still running great..!! THEY WON"T WIN!!!!!!!
 
yeah i was hit pretty hard, just sitting at a redlight..
the guy didnt even hit the break he hit the gas instead :confused:
whatever though its all fixed up and runs fine now
 
old pic of my crash, i still have the crash becuz i bought the car like that, but the sticker is off and i have a protegegarage sticker in place off that old one, and its not dirty like it is in the pic oh and i have red tape over the taillight,

Got my car back from the bodyshop today. They did a great job fixing the rear quarter panel that was rusting. Thanks to Mazda for picking up the tab.

Now for a new clutch.
 
My Corksport MX6 rear strut bar got here today. Maybe I can install it and see how different the car feels with the front still on jackstands.

Nice Bruce! Gee...you need a new clutch already (snicker).

I'll need one soon.. when I turbo. 75k miles on stock clutch ftw.. it still seems just fine too!

Today I fabricated a custom bracket for the wastegate actuator on my turbo... well ok so I just watched while a friend did all the work .. I don't do welding stuff lol.

But yeah.. um pics soon.. like tomorrow probably. It looks reeeally nice, looks more OEM than the actual OEM stuff.
 
My car got spit on this morning on the way to work...nasty.............anyway now i have to wash it again.
 
Its not what I did to my P5 today its what I did to parts of my P5 today.

I hung my old P5 bumper on the wall.
