Don't get a car cause of your girlfriend... What if you dump her. Than you are effed as for colours LoL choose what your heart desires cause take mikes car his car looks good good red but if you get it wont be the same cause of the wheels same goes for the black the wheels make the car.

HITMANN, Don't worry, I'm not going to select a color based on what my girlfriend likes, although her opinion does matter to me and it might just be enough to convince me to get Red, but we will see. The Red is just so attractive in the sun, especially with the Mazdaspeed body kit, but we will see.

Did you guys put mesh in the nose over the radiator and oil cooler openings, or just leave them open? I just bought my car and it had the kit on it already, but I am not sure I like the mesh he had installed. Thanks guys.

my replica came with mesh
I think the mesh is necessary to protect the coolers

Just a note, the mesh is one of the key difference between the MS replicas and the real deal. But I'm sure if you go to home depot you can find one that is sturdy.

These are the only pictures I could find that show the MS pieces on my car (I really need a new camera!). I have the front and rear, and my side skirts are Veilside. I have to second all of the posts that said how easy it was to install the MS pieces. The front took me just under two hours to do by myself. The rear took a little longer with all the cutting, but was still a technically simple job. I muffed it up a little (let the tape get set before I was completely ready), but you can't really tell unless you go looking for it. The paint match is perfect. So, I say that you can't go wrong with any of the MS pieces.

I will definately get the MS rear Im still waiting for the insurance to send me a check to have my rear replaced cuz it would be pointless to install the ms rear and have cracks on the paint on the rear bumper. I'll most likely get viper alarm before ms mirrors.
