alright so i got a hideaway plate today and installed it. got a cf rear license plate frame and some rotary style bolts from rx8strakes. plus i got their interior light kits (red, duh), and put those in. and the rare mazda b pillar appliques. stupid instructions were all in japanese but i figured it all out. next step is the mazdaspeed front strut bar, a cf rear diffuser, cf rear spoiler, and cf eyelids to match the cf/black look. also waiting on a good deal for a front bumper and some sides...

i didn't take pictures and you won't see any because i'll be away in england for june, but i will when i get back in july!

i'll see if i can get bigger pics of the oil cap later. i just replaced the gasket on my tail lights. the modified exhaust actually looks like crap up close. i'm going to be switching it out soon hopefully.
