That's the reason why I like my single stage urethane matte black paint. It's nearly as tough as the old Imrom epoxy. It doesn't need to be and I don't want it to be shiny. I doubt that it will ever see a coat of wax. If/when the topcoat starts to look bad, I will most likely sand the body to dull it even further as opposed to waxing it. If I need to be **** I'd rather put my efforts into the mechanicals, not the body and paint.

my baby with my favorite bodykit for gen 1 sevens.. stock. such a gorgeous car its a shame (IMO) to modify the looks at all.

wheels are simmons versa in 15" can no longer buy them new. closest thing is the OM range and they start in 16". do you guys even get simmons wheels over there? they're pretty popular here

rotarx7.. 2 thumbs up from me

They were on my car when I bought it. They are Mazda dealers option fog lights. Some had Hella or BOSCH written on it instead. I checked them and there isn't any part number. Don't know if there is any company who makes them anymore.

try having a look on their website and call a local dealer with the dimensions and they may be able to help you out

It was a Dupont Hot Hues color, the name was "Blue by You". I was looking in the latest Dupont catalog and did not see it, however they did have some similar good looking blues.

Good luck,
Kevin
