Of course there would be things that I would need to remove from it, but if your interested, send me a pm.

Well haha do you think your buddy may have a good reach to get some good deals on a GT 8 in Cerritos. It is a Brilliant Black 06 GT with the two-tone leather. that i was thinking of going for an 05 NEW pearl white GT 8 that is in redlands if i can talk them into giving it to me for a good price.
Look for it in the next few minutes.

I'm outside right now, during my winter break
trying to see if a claybar and my last coats of zaino will cleann up my front end a bit....
Hey Zoo, did you ever get that Zaino kit? If so, could I borrow some of the products from your kit...somehow, my Z5 was taken from our Zaino party...havent seen it since.

another set of OEM wheels with R-compounds is up for sale.....anyone interested in autocrossing and wanting an extra set of rims...with tires already attached....

Detrich?

Loren....? I know you have an extra set of wheels already, with stock tires on them, but this guy is selling the wheels and the tires for 500....cheaper than buying a set of tires and having them put on your rims....and you could sell your set to someone else.

Anyways just wanted to show off my new authentic ms bumper, the first time I took it out I scrapped my splitters ******, It seems that this bumper is lower than stock cause, I never scraped getting out of my driveway. It bothers me so much that I scrapped my new bumper but what can I do. My dad was like stop bitchin, its just a Mazda, think how those lambo and farrari guys feel when they scrape their bumper. I guess I'm way too ****.

nice job jun, cant see the front bumper to well but it does look good. the lighting on the ground is awesome. are you going to get the side skirts, does the front align good with the body on the sides?
I guess i will have to take a look at that link.

honestly, i think any of us here would also be pissed if we got a new bumper and then accidentally scraped it. at the same time tho- don't be too hard on yourself. objectively, there was probably no way for you to have known... maybe you can measure the clearance and see what approach/ angle u'll need to prevent it from happening again. for what it's worth, my mom told me something similar to what your dad said to you when i was upset over my rock chips... not exactly the best consolation, but i guess it does hold some truth & wisdom...
so, are u going to be around the first week of january? hope u have a great holiday regardless.
