wheels and spoiler

The wheels I had, were of wrong offset. Installed these MS01s. Also, I took off the Re- Amemiya tail light finisher and installed the 96-98 spec spoiler. Sorry for the crappy photos, I took it with my phone camera. Will take post better photos next time.

Good looking! I kinda like the white on red, especially with the MS01's, and that spolier just tops it off imo. Take some more pics from farther away when you get a chance.

Anytime mate, however i'm not too sure how much you'll enjoy the ride, specially with the octane we get here and the boost being limited at 7psi. Book ur tickets and let me know. Would love to have u guys with us. Remember Dev you gotta sing that song!!

Should I get it repainted in some other color?? Should I leave the lip with the polished look and get the center piece painted into something like mercury silver??
Maybe paint the complete wheel to black?? Should I leave it as it is? Any suggestions.

I'd leave them white, but have the bolts polished. That would look sweet!

Took some pics yesterday. Gives a better view of the wheels. Also i relocated my boost controller.

Am badly looking for a 99spec front bumper and undertray. Hopefully Dev is gonna help me out with those.

P.S. notice how my front fender was hit (in the middle) with my old wheels.

Thanks Dave. Its great. I took Tyler's suggestion and went along with it to limit my boost at 7psi.
Hope you have your car up and running soon.

One thing which I'd like to mention is that I havent spent a penny in repair works for my car, after i installed the new engine which was years ago. Only thing which i HATE is that we only get 89/90 RON in Bangladesh.

My MS01s are gold with a polsihed lip, and they are awesome. I LOVE red cars with gold wheels, and I think it would look amazing on yours. My car is black, and they look really really good. I want to get them redone though, in the same color, but Im worried about the Mazdaspeed emblem. I dont know where Id get new ones, and I feel that theyre essential to the wheel. Let me know if you know of anywhere to get them.

Mine were gold with polished lip too. The gold coating was damaged and I didnt know where I could get it restored in Bangladesh. As a result I chose to get them painted. If you notice my post #10 you'll see my mazdaspeed sticker (Blue). I got them made in the exact size as the original ones on the wheels. If you wanna shoot for the original stickers, mazdaspeed still makes them. You can see that they still sell the stickers on their catalog. Getting the lip of my wheels back to polished look is not a problem and something I'm still debating on.
Custom make the stickers, its neat and cheap. I'm attaching an old pic of my car before it was shipped from Japan. The previous owner for some reason painted the car black and ruined the wheels. I therefore had limited options to go with.

The 1st pic is how the previous owner got the 7 straight out of Japan. The 2nd pic is of how the vehicle was when i got it. (Didn't have the front bumper) The lights were broken, interior messed up, see the engine bay. You'll know.
