PICS: Just washed/waxed my silver 1995 PEP

Sorry if people are tired of yet another pics thread, but I was very happy with the look of the car after two coats of Pinnacle Signature wax. There were no silver Spirit-Rs made, but this is probably roughly what one would have looked like, sans spoiler (and yet to install passanger seat)

Gee Daniel..that screename has got to go man. Thanks for the compliment Mike. The car is pretty much the same as when you last saw it, aside from the front end, and its been lowered more/corner balanced. I was debating as to whether to wait for Chucks plateless version, but I'm going to be running a front plate when I go to higher risk police enforement areas so just went OEM.

that is beautiful man. I love that shiny oil cooler up front too. Very gorgeous. You have a very similar taste to mine, just a little bit more time and money

hmm maybe its my monitor... or the sun... but it seems a lil too light to be 25g. Looks very nice though!

BTW did you have to buy the 99 rebar to be able to screw in the license plate?

Just a lil add on.... dont forget the sidemarkers on the fender

Yeah the camera and the lighting made the car look a bit lighter, but the paint is all original (other than the front bumper). A strange thing with the 1995 silver cars is that the engine bay is grey rather than silver (perhaps a cost cutting measure by Mazda) I went ahead with the 99 rebar, and the plate is held on by two u-nuts which clamp to the skin. The rebar does not have anything to do with holding the plate on. I would assume the u-nuts are what would be used in Japan to hold the plate on anyways, but I dont have a Mazda part number for them.

Yeah it's the Rotary Extreme version...the last pic of your setup that you posted seemed very clean.

Rotoboy..the gauges are Defi-link. Thanks 2L 1st gen...where did we meet? Riverside? Actually, compared to other rotaries I've been seeing around here lately, mine is really on the slow side (just boltons).

Very nice, tastefully modified. Some mudguards and your FD would be done! It makes me miss my FD.

Your FD looks absolutely amazing. I really wanna go 99 spec now. So how much did you find the seats for? And i must say the RGR's looks great with the silver. Great job and good luck finishing that thing up and keep it clean.

I never thought I would say this because I hate silver cars. Your car looks awesome!!! I own a silver FD myself, ironically, but am saving money for custom paint job. (I bought itonly because it was on sale for very cheap).

Btw, the steering wheel, that did not come stock with the car, right? Where did u buy it and how much?

And the rims, what are they?
