I say again...

please do not put orange or red in a yellow car.

 

I might take some interior pics and see what I can accomlish with Photoshop ... cause I really didn't think orange would be too bad of a color to go with yellow. We'll see .. thanks for the input guys.

 

Hmmm...I dunno man....I wanted to actually go up to B-ham for that auto-x, but I don't think it's going to happen I just had POTUS come in yesterday and I got a bunch o' **** to take care of this weekend.. We might have to do it next weekend....

 

phil why didn't you paint the door handles? they look out of place now.

 

I didn't know how to take 'em apart...didn't want to break 'em. I've got to redo my center panel...so I think I'll do it then.

 

Good write up. It's a big plus when guys like you take the time to write up and photograph your projects.

 

No problemo....I enjoy it.

Yo! Matt, my gf is going to Mobile NEXT weekend for a Mary Kay conference....hit me up on my email and we can discuss the plan of action.

 

I did the same thing to my interier, came out real nice and gets Nuff compliments



I replaced my guages too though
I also got a brushed alluminum insert bezel


GREAT how to though, I followed all the same steps, I got the cars instructions for disassembly (the whole car)

 

Very nice.

 

Thanks, I was impressed with the cheap *** E-bay bezel fitting so whell and giving off such a good finish.

I dont want to spend too much on the exterior or the body, I like to put my money into "go fast" parts, but It was Soooooooooo Drab, That 40 bucks of paint was worth it.

 

thats sweets.. what kinda shift **** is that?

 

RAZO 300 CF Dark Chrome, with a Ractive CF boot (I hate the boot and will replace it soon)

Its bad ***



It will look ALOT better when I get my short shifter put in.

 

I want to switch from 2 exposed cup holders to a flip lid.

Will I need just the cover plate and the cup holders (would my curent cup holders switch over?) do I need to switch somenthing else too?

 

Dude...when i get the car back..it's getting done....after not having her for what's going on 3 weeks now...I have a new found enthusiasm to redo that center I was being lazy about too.
My Dad is coming up to So. Florida for Thanksgiving...and he's a huge Mazda Protege fan, so I really want him to see it in person, pics over the net don't do it justice until yu actuallt sit & see it in person.
By mid November, I hope to atleast have my CF hood & the Sport20 tail lights....I think I may sell the tinted tails I have now, maybe keep them actually & get another set to redo....but this will be after I get the J-Spec ones.

 

sounds good. so how are you getting around while the car is in the shop?
