Paint the lip black and you'll be set, the 93 bumper with the 99 wing looks weird.

Throwing the idea out there, some paint shops paint the lip though it's not supposed to be. He can do whatever he wants.

Prodigy, are both of those coolant caps (AST and radiator fill neck) identical? The AST should be pressurized (have a spring) and the rad fill neck should be flat underneath.

Just giving you a hard time.

I agree with you 100% regarding your comment about the overall look of the 93' front bumper with the 99' rear spoiler.

Yup, previous owner installed them.... they are 16psi,

the pressure cap is already replaced by a new AST and the 13psi cap...

for the filler neck cap, do I buy a specific cap, or can I modify one of my current caps to work with it...

thanks

Just lots of practice examining customer's engine bays and looking for anomalies Mike. See ya at the Dragon

Jeff, I use a Blitz cap that's rated at 16 psi, but I also deleted my AST (with an FC fill neck). That's the only way you can use a pressurized rad fill neck cap.

Your best bet is to buy one from Mazda. You know about big bad Ray Crowe? In case you don't give him a ring at 888 533 3400. He runs a Mazda parts warehouse and knows the FD inside and out

horrible timing on my part... he shipped out a package for me this afternoon,

My rad has a leak in it. so while replacing it with a aluminum one (just bought a koyo N flow) is a good step towards better cooling system, I got the whole set of coolant hoses from Ray all 14, in hopes of making the whole system that much more "safer", and then I get to replace every old "spring clamp" with a new worm gear... which should help as well...
