my MS rear body being work on, missing a bolt spot(before fiber glass....there is nothing there)~(1st pix)

my MS rear bumper after some major sanding(2nd pix)

my front bumper with adding fiber glass, there was a few cracks(3rd pix)

front bumper after major sanding, cracks fix (4th)

rear bumper before sanding down the first primer layer, so pretty(5th)

front bumper before sanding down the first primer layer(6th,next post)

sideskirt after sanding the first layer of primer(7th,next post)

kit will be all painted (2 layers paint, 3 layers clear coating) tomorrow and will be install, car will be lower 3 quarters of an inch (same as real mazdaspeed)~~ MS bodykit , next goal...MS spoiler

and yes...if you wonder...the kit is aftermarket...still not sure if I like the look of the stock mazda frontbumper more or the MS front bumper more(more texture on the stock one I think...and I like the front spoiler)...but I'll paint it anyway

it looks like you have access to a paint booth. Do you do your own painting?

a tent with cover work perfectly fine~ paint usually dry off in 2 hours for paint and 1-1.5hours for clear coating(summer is hot)...but if you bring it to a bodyshop they'll charge you like 16 hours of labor just for the paint

How are u going to match the color? It looks like you are not going to blend the new mods with the rest of the car.

fitment of the bumper is near perfect. only modifications you have to do is trim some plastic off of the corner lenses and remove the metal bumper support. there are these pieces you will have to re-use off of the bumper support. you will have to saw through the weld tacs and break it off, super easy. thats it!

DANomite - that front end looks great with the MS sides. Good job on it. You use to have the stock front air dam, didn't you? That was a good look too

Those rims are badass... but looks wrong on a stock car.
It needs a good kit to match.
