So as you can see, the hood is completely FUBAR, darn you arizona sun! I'm going to either paint the entire hood red and black or replace it and only paint part of it red and leave the CF showing. I also found a short little container at Walmart that fits almost perfectly in that little trunk indentation. The grill is also going to be replaced by a real grill mesh from Customcargrills.com. Front and rear grills (Finally).

The whole car's gonna be repainted Vred and black like NYC Drift King's car (only red lol), and if I have the money I'm planning on G25s (yes I know how much they cost lol) and red calipers to finish it off. After that I'll be done with aesthetics and can move on to performance!



EDIT: Oh, I didn't win best Mazda, lost to a pink monstrosity from El Paso. It was a very nice RX8. And very pink.

9k, I have always and will always respect your opinion as somebody who knows what they're talking about and knows how to put together a tasteful car, but on this I will have to respectfully disagree

Lots of cars have a theme, mine happens to be black and red (at least it's not black and pink lol)

Why, because it's not your style? Do you know how many people I had come up to me telling me how much they liked my car? Don't be ridiculous. I'm sorry it's not perfect. I'm sorry I'm not a professional photographer, and I'm I'm sorry it's not what YOU would do to YOUR car, but you don't have to be rude about it. It's people like you who give this club a bad name.

Your front bumper seems to be a duller red than the rest of the car... or does it just look that way in the pics?

If you're talking about this picture, it's because there's a spec on the inside lens of my camera, no idea how it got there, it wasn't there at first lol

Yeah, I didn't know what else to use at the time so I went to home depot :\ It looked *ok* before the paint started chipping off, I'm replacing it with a real grill from customcargrills.com. I'm also not happy with the Halos, complete waste of money imo.
