Congrats. You've obviously put alot of work into your car, and while it isn't really my style, I appreciate anybody who puts spirit into their work and gets rewarded for it.

Keep it up

I agree on the taillights too, that's pretty cool. Kinda makes me want to go fastback with my 1st gen too. Prolly not but maybe.

What I really like are those side skirts with the flares at the corners, am I crazy thinking that's unique or do they all come like that? Where did you get yours?

All I know is they have you fill out a online form with your car info and mods. I entered the JDM section also but found out their was no JDM competion for RHD models. I won 1st place in the Madza Wild Class.. The wild class means you have many mods on you car.. body and engine.
