The only other thing I would do is maybe a 99 spoiler.

Looks good man, i'd take out those aluminum floorpans like Crono' said but if you like it, thats all that matters. '99 spec'. front bumper with R1/R2 rear spoiler looks real good!

I love the looks exterior-wise, although its a very tough battle between R1 Wing, Wingless, and '99 Spec wing IMO. Get some mazda mudguards to complete the "stock bodykit" look Any sideskirt will look like a slug attached to your car when you bottomed out in a swamp IMO....

I have considered painting the caliper's black with mazda in white, very nice touch!

I'm not a fan of all the interior manipulation though, the alloy/silver panel and floor mats and the pad on the seat...

Overall, very nice. Engine bay may not be bling or super-modified, but it says "reliable" to me ha

Yeah, some side skirts would finish it out nicely. Those rims are so hot, specially without that ugly fender gap...

I love the bronze wheels. I admire them because they are different and they add an exotic look to the car....rather, they make it that much more* exotic. I used to have SSR Integrals in bronze, except mine were more of a gold than a dark bronze. Looks amazing!!
