mmm..fresh paint!

This is mt 87 T2 that just got a makeover. The moron forgrt to properly attach my hood scoop after paint so it took flight after I picked it up from the shop. Have no fear though, a new one from Mazda is on the way. Let me know what you think.
Thanks

You could not even imagine how pissed I was when it took flight. I should be in shape within a week though. What do you think of it being debadged and the side mouldings painted?

The belt mouldings are brand new as well. This is a huge improvement over the old rusted ones.

Thanks for the props! Now if I could only get some more time to put on new parts and remove my emissions I would really be happy. Alabama: the land of no emissions testing!

looks decent, the color is very boring. Props for actually painting your car though.

That is fine that everyone has there own opinion about color choice, but I really like the stock color, so That is what I went with.

looks good but where'd your wing go? I thought all TIIs had a wing. Car looks nice but re-paint the plastic tail light covers black, or while you still have the stock paint, spray some on the tail covers when your new scoop comes. Color's ok but you should've put some metalic flake in the stock color.

I thought the same thing about the spoiler, but I could not find any holes that had been filled in the body. I ran the vin and it said that it came with one. i searched for some kind of sign, but no luck.
