A few updates

**tchnprgrmr** · 1-25-08, 18:07

I picked up all four rims for only $175. Please ignore the slightly bad paint job, I haven't washed the car in about a month.

A few more things on the list: 1) New paint job, but keeping it black 2) lower the car 3) possible front & rear lips

I also "delocked" the doors:

As well as removing the spoiler and antenna: (I know i need to sand the spots down some more, but that should be done in the next week)

What do you think? Should I paint the Mazda symbols on the rims black?

"LOOKS GREAT" from what i can see

Looks great what method did you use to fill in holes? And do you have pics while you did it?

**tchnprgrmr** · 1-25-08, 18:43

I completely forgot to take pictures as I was doing it. Its self explanatory though. I bought a tube of QuickSteel from AutoZone, most auto places should carry it. I simply followed the directions on the back of the container. Its sandable and paintable.

Oh yeah. The stock antenna is still there. It is as fully extended as it can be in the rear fender well.

Those 3 rims don't look too bad. Good job.

**Car-InsanE** · 1-25-08, 22:14

dont paint the mazda logo on the rims. it looks good where its at

**Chefsp0t** · 1-25-08, 23:08

Looks good. It's nice to see another black 6. Do you have any pictures from the side showing the whole car? I like the wheels. It looks like they need some spacers to bring them flush with the fender.

NPR = New Port Richey? I'm in New Tampa. You should come out to some local Mazda meets.

I think painting the emblems black would be a nice touch. It would make them stand out more, and that wouldn't be a bad thing, IMHO.

The 3 rims look pretty good, it's in dire need of some spacers though. Good progress man.

**tchnprgrmr** · 1-26-08, 15:09

Yeah, I'm in Jax for school. So during the summer I'm definitely up for some meets.

Here are some more pictures I took today. The white is way to bright. It was overcast, so I'm not sure what happened.

Much thanks to matt, panther37 on here, for creating these gauges

matt also took the second picture when he helped me install them

**Car-InsanE** · 1-27-08, 14:56

woooow those gauges look AWESOME

**Nealio** · 1-27-08, 15:18

Those gauges do look quite awesome. What happened to your fuel and temp needles? They don't glow any more.
