**JLCustomizing** · 1-15-09, 11:06

the 2.0 is a hidden gem lol my car is unique, its um uuhhh lol.

I think a car can be complete, once i have a very very close replica of the mazdaspeed mx-6 mine will be done, then its on to another mx-6.

I think you should convert it to black, make it a full blackout inside and out!

^ I think so too. But then again, I live in phoenix where summers reach 120 degrees! But idk, I still have a few exterior things to do before I really focus on the inside. Blacked out tails are drying at home as we speak

Honestly i think a black interior with red piping would look awesome on that car. Black out the headliner, tint the windows, switch the dash lights to blue or purple, black door inserts. Sorry i keep going on, just the stuff i was going to do to my car before i made up my mind on what im doing now.

**Phoenician6** · 1-15-09, 11:22

^ haha no problem dude I like the feedback. Red and black is sex. But I was maybe thinking keeping the car nice with black and tan trim. Black dash, panels and all that good stuff. But maybe getting a tan shift boot, black and tan re upholstered seats, black door cards with a tan insert. Whatcha think? Interior dominantly black with some tan trim?

**JLCustomizing** · 1-15-09, 11:28

I think it comes down to your final goal, black and tan to me is luxury so if your going for a more luxurious interior that would be pretty nice. I had a black and tan setup in my grand prix and got compliments all the time.

**Phoenician6** · 1-15-09, 11:32

Got pix of your old grand prix interior?

I think I may be aiming for a classy luxurious low key look the more I think about it. Hence having everything blacked out. Side pods and mud guards as opposed to side skirts. I have ideas twisting in my head and its driving me nuts that I hardly ever have time to work on my car!

**JLCustomizing** · 1-15-09, 11:48

I dont have any pics of my prix anymore since i sold it after i blew up the tranny. Ya i had a crap ton of ideas what to do with my mx6, finally i bought the rhd conversion and that forced me to go in the direction im going now, but im pleased with it, nice to finally have a direct route to go on my car.

**Phoenician6** · 1-15-09, 11:52

I just bought some front clears on ebay. Waiting on the backs from thingsthatfly

Yeah I couldnt find the time to convert to rhd like you so more power to you. Ill be watching your thread!

**redbond1** · 1-15-09, 12:06

i'm waiting on my super bright blue headlight strobes

**JLCustomizing** · 1-15-09, 12:06

With cf_z helping me out and getting my dash in return its all good, it can be a 20 hour project if i have the right people doing it, my friend did his rhd on his 240 with 3 people in 17 hours, straight through work though with 2 breaks and a lot of beer lol.

See I wish I had someone here to help me out like that! Everyone around me is a "honda enthusiast"...nuff said. I do have to give credit to my gf though. She's always willing to learn and help out. Whether it be loosening a bolt or what not. She went to the junk yard with me a few times. I gave her the tasks of removing a gas lid and the trunk...such a turn on to see a woman working on a car...lol

.

Strobes???^^ You going moby on me??

**JLCustomizing** · 1-15-09, 12:25

I had strobe lights all over my old crown vic lol that thing was bright when all the neons were on and what not. I had strobes in the wheel wells, in the headlights, red a blue strobes behind the grill (dont ask please lol). Neon lights under the hood, in the trunk, foot spaces, under the car. It was the thing to do back then though.

**Phoenician6** · 1-15-09, 12:31

Oh yes. I know the craze
