Here are the links to the pics of donny's car. Great looking car I might add, love the color.
Let's see how long I last until my personal webspace starts sending my death threats :o: http://home.insightbb.com/~kyleo/grayfd1.jpg http://home.insightbb.com/~kyleo/grayfd2.jpg http://home.insightbb.com/~kyleo/grayfd3.jpg http://home.insightbb.com/~kyleo/grayfd4.jpg http://home.insightbb.com/~kyleo/grayfd5.jpg http://home.insightbb.com/~kyleo/grayfd6.jpg http://home.insightbb.com/~kyleo/grayfd7.jpg http://home.insightbb.com/~kyleo/grayfd8.jpg |
WHOA. NICE!!!!
I hear the "Spirit R" questions comming already. |
the color is an actual factory Mazda color. Its called "dark titanium metallic" or "dark shadow gray on the Fords" It is a color option off of the 2003 Mazda Tribute SUV, believe it or not. As soon as the black carpet gets here I can re-install the interior. I dyed all of the tan panels black and are going to have the seats re-covered this winter in black leather and maybe some small charcoal inserts. Then the motor is getting re-built, polished, and I am going with a single set-up, probably a TO4S or similar. I had the Apexi kit on my last FD and loved it, spooled as quick as the twins, but I want low 400rwhp this time. Apexi kit was making 355rwhp at 14.5psi on a non-ported motor..

absolutly gorgeous. Did I mention that it was gorgeours. That is exaclty what I want to do to my car. I think its great that you took the time to do it right. That color is perfect. Did you paint it yourself in your garage? to bad your in MN, I would have loved to help, then we could have done my car next. ;)
I give you props. Is the front bumper and rear wing genuine mazda. Looks great, I get sick of all the riced out FD's, I think that car looks beter than almost all FD's. |
May I ask how long has this car been in the works??? And how much you have spent on her?
Looks Awesome! |

I started this project about 3 months ago and I would have been done 1 month ago if the carpet would ever show up. I have a lot more pics if I could just figure out how to down size them so they will post. I guess I about 1k in materials for the paint and supplys. I did everthing in my garage but rented a paint booth to spray the exterior of the car. I wanted to do it the right way that is why I gutted the interior and painted that too. Even though you will never see it, I know its not red and wont be if a panel is ever removed. i will do the rest of the engine bay this winter.. I will post more pics as I complete the car. I have some Apexi side skirts on the way, they were the least rice looking I could find and the closest to the OEM Mazda, but way less money...

man...that looks absolutely amazing...
|
you can post all your pics here http://briefcase.yahoo.com and then just post the link. THis is the easiest if you don't have web space.
By the way, if you ever come to Chicago with your car i would love to see it. Later |

Wow, your FD is so nice. One of the nicest and cleanest I've seen in awhile. Awesome car :bigthumb:
|
What size wheels are those?
|
18" volk te37. 8.5" front and 9.5 rear. 235/40/18 and 275/35/18 in the rear. Nitto 555.

awesome job! Where did you learn to spray. Did someone help you? I would just like to get mine repainted in the stock red just to get rid of the rock chipped front end that it had when I bought it.
By the way. Where in MPLS? I grew up there. Now I am one hour north of LA. Do you go to Midway ever? |
I used to paint at a body shop. I have been to midway, not this year though, yet..
|
Wow looks so good I downloaded all those pics on my 56K!
Thanks for doing a good job on it, so many FDs are getting crappy repaints. It is good to see someone do it right. |
i give mad props!!
