And after all that, the car with the downdraft that I loved so much turns out to be an Rx2. It's featured in this month's MazdaSport magazine. Nice engine bay, very sweet... but not a 7.

I know..I know.... the orange one is not a 7 either.. I think it's an RX3, but they look so good I had to throw them in there.

I'm going to throw it in as a wildcard. My question is: Why go through the trouble of painting the housings, Front Cover, and Alt to leave the radiator like that. It could look alot better in my opinion.

Painted Radiator



A few other inductees







Looking for pic of entire bay

If you are refering to my stipped to the bare metal and clearcoated radiator, that is the old ratrod look to go with my matte black body paint. Old school all the way with the body kit, Epsilons and paint. I've been pleasantly suprised that most people like the matte black paint in person.

Btw, that is not paint on the rest of the engine and accessories, it is all powdercoat, and I dood it meself.
