after the install

i can notice shorter throws and everything is a little closer, but its nothing to get excited about, it dosnt look all that lower but you feel the difference

thanks funky buddha:bt:

i removed everything for like a week while i spray painted it properly, with primer then yellow as a bightener, then the colormatched blaze red, then a few cans of clearcoat and it shines nicly, still not done tho

if you want a few tips or more info just PM me , ill get to you eventually

i have more pics of the interior, just PM me or ask me to post them and i will

to top it off might as well get the Mazda Oem shiftboot and knob. or goto corksport and get the Leather boot off there and the mazdaspeed knob. Just a nice suggestion. Corksport sells the Mazda Speed aluminum knob in red. so it will match :-p

actually im going to get a black boot (leather) and keep that knob, and i wont order it from corksport, seems from what i read around here all they do is dick their customers around,

if i want that ill goto the local honda preformace shop:rolleyes:
