What have you done to your P5 today?

[thorracing271]

Yep I said the same thing when I saw the car coming up on me at about 50 miles a hour. Good thing I turned the wheel to the left or I would of been wearing the SUV in front of me . Instead I was shoved into oncoming traffic. I was only hit one more time so I think that is a plus.

hope your feelin alright. Along with the P5 also.

[reut1]

[ZOOMEN Sie Zoo]

The car is at a fix it shop. Insurance company took there. I dont think I have access to it to get the rests for you . Ill email you or post if something changes....

Sorry man...I hate to break it to you, but I would be shocked if she wasn't totaled...a sad day indeed.

Picked up my P5 yesterday morning.

Going to register and insure it today after work. Leaving work early!

Ordered:
Lo Beam HID Kit
Fog HID Kit
CorkSport Shortshifter and oil bushings
Stubby atenna
all season mats
and some switchblade style key/fob remotes

Hopefully tint and winter tires before the new years!

Considering the car was worth about 7,500 they will have to total it. The rear end alone I figure is 7to 9000 to fix. Then add the front to that. Plus do to the angle I got hit Im not surprised if the frame is tweaked. That alone is a disaster. Just think this is my second Mazda to go down. I got caught in a flash flood 3 years ago and lost a sedan... needless to say I almost died that night . You can defiently say the Mazda has a solid fire wall. No water entered the car until I open a window. Then I sank about 30 feet. That water was cold and black and scary. But Im here to talk about it(cabpatch)

 

[mWxo3]

holy crap ^^

I was going to work minding my own business. I entered the wash and next think I knew I was broadsided by a huge wall of water.I ended up about a mile from where I sank I found a tree to grab on to. We found the car about mile down after the water receded.

Wow that's nuts just glad you made it out ok.

Wow, thats nuts...

Saw my P5 last night for the first time in a week (been out of town for the holidays in my Bimmer). Will pull her out of the garage tonight and swap everything back into her, I deflated the tires about a month ago and put nitrogen in them, but the drivers-rear is low, must have a nail or something in it...

Just checked all connections on my Techone HID kit on the DS. Everything was nice and tight. Even swapped over the PS ballast and bulb lights up fine initially and after about 20 seconds it flickers and dies.

I had a ballast issue before and with that it wouldn't even fire up so bulb is shot?

 

[Matt V]

I am about half way through installing the Frost King duct insulation in my doors, just finished up the rear and have to do the front. I'm currently uploading a video on YouTube to show the difference it makes, I'll post it as soon as it's done loading up.

 

[CTt3P5]

Washed it (ok I cheated and took it to Spoilers) but to have it washed, dried, vacuumed and somewhat detailed for $18 on a cold, windy December day is well worth it.

Also swapped a retired Silverstar bulb in the DS for the HID bulb/ballast. Hopefully this won't burn out on me until my new bulbs arrive. lol

 

[Matt V]

CT - I'll have some 6000k bulbs for sale within a week or two after my retrofit is complete. If you want an extra set of bulbs I'll hook you up.

And here are the videos I promised about the Frost King:

[azmp5]

retrofit is a waste o' money IMO , lol . I would rather use that towards a turbo kit or rims.

 

[JDMJNKY]

Just saw the video's great work Matt.Does the other side of that stuff have like a black tar?If so I'm in luck I have about 8 roll's of that stuff at work
