I want your body....kit that is I love the look you have going on there.

I know I'll get the scorn of you all but I got bored and am plastidipping my stock rims using the new metalizer and gloss they have - it actually looks great in the sunlight - only have one done so far - thoughts....other than it looks gay, lol I was bored and wanted a change that could be reversible if I F'd it up. They are just my summer rims, forgot how small my Blizzak winter's were - makes stock look HUGE.

Hey Jesse, looks good but... .if I were to change one thing it would re-do the headlights in flat or simi-gloss black. The red in the headlights is just a bit much for me personally.

I agree for sure hoss. Looks over done especially with an aggressive hood and kit. Might eventually get it redone. Maybe leave the headlight casing red and paint the headlight rings black. What u reckon?

If it was my car I would repaint everything that is red semi or gloss black then paint the fore and aft rings on the main projectors satin gray.

Look about 1.04 into the vid, you will get sort of a teaser as to what white would look like on our vr

I love the VR, but I don't own one. Anyway, I was reading another thread not related to this one; I just couldn't remember the title, but someone with a VR was looking for side skirts and rear mud flap. Anyway, I came across this MS skirts in CL

Velocity Red Mazdaspeed side skirts and rear aero flares - $400
