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.

But I'm back and here's some more of what I've done... sorry for the crap pictures and the dirty car. And I know I have to tidy up those wires on the sub... but, I just installed it today.
