I love those modern front light clusters! I've been debating getting them... but now I'm totally convinced!

The rear diffuser is something I've been looking into as well... Specifically like that one! Which one is that one?? I've been looking at the Mazdaspeed one... Looks almost stock looking...

Lates,

Hey mitch, your car looks great. It looks so much better with the headlight cover painted, but to be honest, it was kind of growing on me. Anyways, awesome car. Good job.

And his diffuser is the RE Amemiya Old style diffuser.

Lates,
Thanks, you wont regret the lights they make the front look so much better. And the diffuser is a old-school Re-amemiya model. Got it from a rotaryextreme gb.

All I need now are the feed sideskirts and my look will be complete!

Nice! I like the black wheels on the red FD. The rear diffuser looks good too. Plus, it looks super clean, which makes it look even better!

Great job!

Thanks for all the good comments guys!!

Soon I will take some pictures at a local park with a fresh coat of wax that coat is about 3 months old.

ProjectD I believe Chuck still produces the replicas at Rotaryextreme.com

looks great, now all you need is a slight drop and the car is HOOOOOTTTNNESSS!!

btw, is your exhaust supposed to point like that? i thought it should angle more upward?? maybe im wrong or maybe thats how that type of exhaust is supposed to be...

I quite agree about the drop!! It will come sooner or later.

And the exhaust is at an angle and pointed slightly upwards, not as extreme as the N1 but I think the picture just makes it look funny.

once you get the feed sides it will be perfect, however i think a set of coilovers would help your situation out quite a bit as well

Thanks for the pics...

..more importantly...thanks for the RIGHT angle'd pics! Jeeze laweeeze, some of you FD owners take the worst angles possible on our cars, making the curves and lines look extra bulgy or all stupid like.

If you like the FD at all, and own one, you should know those angles that just make your knees quiver...why not take pictures at those captive angles?

Cheers to a clean, beautiful car, in beautiful pics, finally worth a *right click save*

*What kind of tires are on your stock rims? They look like all-season'ish cheaper tires...but your in FL, come on man, I don't want to see ANY tread! :P The car will look nuts if lowered an inch too...
