Hey Eric if you use the Rockblockers and some yellow PIAAs the yellow is awesome!
 
Removed all the badging from the rear of the p5!

I'm gonna shave down the "Flying M" badge, to make a "Fanged M". Will prolly smoke tint that one when I'm done.

I don't really want to put the "mazda" or the "protege5" emblems back on.... Any way to fill the holes without a full hatch repaint?

It went from 74 degrees yesterday, to 49 degrees today....WTFH??!!

I never liked the protege 5 emblem. I replaced w/ the 323 badge. Some will argue as to why you would put a false badge on a car. It's a matter of personal taste. You may wan't to check Chris' (kansei) pictures. He smoked his 323 badge it looks great. Just a thought.

I've pretty much gone through all the badging. I went from stock, to the JDM Sport20 badging, to the stock badging painted gloss black with Sport20 badge, to the stock badging painted silver with Sport20 badge, to all the stock badging black (left the 5 red, and removed the Sport20 side badges at this time), to the 323 badge with all the badges black where I'm at right now. I'm considering going back to my blacked-out Protege5 badge with the Mazdaspeed badge from the MSP or the one from the MSM on the right. If I get the MSM Mazdaspeed badge I'll make it black to match the others. I just don't know if the MSM one will cover the holes.

Ill have mine smooth please...

Unf. I need to do some short-stopping in this snow... maybe I can get one of those ;)

I put my stock low-beam bulbs in since one of my titanium white bulbs pooped out on me :( Maybe I'll splurge for an HID setup.
 
ditto to being smooth... now you need to tint your tails! :D

had mine welded when they fixed some rust on the hatch (ughdance)

I'm not sure I can follow that (crazy)

Nope, doesn't cover the holes... at least not completely. I bought the MSM badge specifically for that purpose, but alas it was not meant to be. I ended up using it on my front grille for a while, but ended up taking it off & now it's just sitting on the sidelines.
 
Finally got around to switching out my spark plugs. Had original Denso's in there, but now they're NGK ZFR5F-11's. Hardest part of doing the plugs was pulling off the first boot (did not want to come off) and afterwards making sure the ones under the coil packs were properly engaged -maybe i used too much dielectric grease, cuz i could not tell if they were locking into place...
