I lived there for two years, the roads aren't anything to call home about, and even worse are how people drive... two years, and three cars totaled. None of them my fault. In fact two of the times my car was totaled I was not even moving.

sorry to disagree, but IMHO, thats the tackiest thing I've ever seen; particularly the liberal user of decals all over the place...............ugh...............

i like everything, but the front bumper portion where it's painted/covered with the carbon fiber look... for some reason it looks like the hood is over stretched.. looks like gonzo's nose....


but ilike the color tho.

how did you change the color of the Mazda symbols? Did you buy a new symbol, or spray paint the existing one?

Overall I like it.

I'm not a fan of chrome gas caps, and too many decals for me, but it's your car and none of it was over the top so enjoy.

PS: Whose red Si is that?
