Nice ride as always! Any clues as to how you created your Work Centercaps? I really like how they turned out!

really cool how you change colors all the time lol, do you have a whole spare front end for when you get bored and want to change things up? Noticed you have different mirrors, hood, front bumper. Also did you find it fairly easy to learn how to dip your own car?

Thanks! I do in fact have several body parts and dipping is an easy process.
Hey Phil, where did you get the hood dampers for the Gold Fd? I am guessing they are half pressure shocks, but I REALLY like the brackets as they look a hell of a lot beefier than the ones that I had on mine before. I need a better bracket to work with my Feed hood. Thanks!

I finally paid attention long enough to go read up and watch the videos on plasti-dip.
I wish I had seen that prior to painting my car last year. I would have just done that and saved myself a boatload of time and money. It is nice to know I can go that route when I get sick of my current paint job.
Phil did you spray the plasti-dip yourself or did you have it done?

Well, after over a year with plasti dip on my car, I've decided to peel it and do some detailing of the car.
Friend of mine started a detailing product company in Florida called, 'Stay Fresh Car Car' (Stay Fresh Car Care / Premium Car Care Supplies) and I used their products to detail my RX7.
Before detailing - little bit of haze to the clear.
After Detailing
Products worked really well. Easy to apply, easy to remove, and smelled great too!
I would highly recommend giving their product a chance!

Update..
I finally got my stuff that I ordered from Japan couple of years ago here in USA.. One of the thing I got were these super rare Rays Engineering/Mazdaspeed MS-01 Magnesium wheels.
Put some Toyo T1-Sports tires on them.
I also got the newest Knightsports Type-7 bumper painted by one of the best body shop in USA, Goolsby Customs.
paint quality the reflection is amazing.. Definitely worth every penny to get them to paint!
Check their site: Goolsby Customs - Custom cars and collision
Some of the photos installed
and fun pic to represent my city..

ITs been awhile since I updated.. Alot have happened so I'll start with where I left.
Made it black again..
Week later, I took the car to Nashville TN to show under Grip Royal booth.
After the event, I had a photoshoot with some photographers.
