Going for mazdaspeed front end just to finish it off and then lowered on kw variants.

The strakes and and badges were removed. I didnt personally do the respray. But it had to go back in again to get that fixed. The pics are the only ones i have and are from the first one.

oh yeah it came with the car. you cant choose plates the same way. The first two letters are the county/area the 3d and 4th numbers are the year 08 (2008 feb-july) 58 (2008 august - january) the last 3 are just random.
