KAIFD3S is correct, it's the Mazdaspeed Hood.

This is the same hood I had on my old BLUE FD back in 2001 (It was carbon fiber then). I sold the hood to my friend and he painted it white, now it's mine again

I don´t think that the wing is something special...
Alot of people have them...

I should have had finished my project... then the rear wing would have been something special

But I wasn´t able to make the whole thing street legal here in germany. so I stopped before finishing it....

Here is how it would have looked:


AFFLUX - main-blade ontop of Mazdaspeed wing!

your car looks stunning. I have the same wing. I tried it on, but some how it didn't come out as good as yours. I believe the combination of diffuser and front end of yours make a huge different.

Just installed some new wheels that will make the traditionalists happy

Old look- 18x8/9 Super Advan Version 2 (Sold, just waiting on payment) and Tein Circuit Master Type RE coilovers:


New Look- 18x10" +50 CCW Classics Race version with 285/30 Sumitomo HTR ZIII on all 4 corners. Pettit Trak Pro Stage II coilovers with ride height of 25.25" front/ 25.75" rear. Will be lowering the rear to match the front. Car is filthy and needs a wash.

OneWheelPeel- Looks good! I had RE30's on my 350Z and loved them. Did you leave some dried wax on the car in a few spots?

Rice Hata- Clean car. Looks better, though imho I'm naf of either wheel. haha *spacers needed*

RiceHata..
I like the new wheels...they look better.... I would have gone with better offsets though...they tuck in to far... maybe a +45 or +40 in the rear..

Thanks for the positive replies. I went with the square fitment so I could rotate my tires and keep the handling as neutral as possible. I was hoping the wheels would stick out more in the rear (fronts are just about flush), but I think it's a good compromise. I'm not a fan of the hella flush/wheels poking out look. Maybe down the line I'll buy some 18x11" and put some 315's on the rear when I'm making more power.

Rear shot- car is dirty. Next up- new muffler/tips:
