I'm not a real big fan of the color orange, but the combo with the orange and black tint and rims really seems to work. Good job like prew said don't rice it out like your friends RSX.

The tinted windows and black rims work nicely with the paint. Good color choice.

Looks good, what's next on the list?, IMO once it's lower, it'll look sweet the way it is.

My boyfriend is the one who painted it so my only expenses were supplies, but if you were to get that paint job through his shop it would run probably around 6-7k being how its a complete color change, jams and all. Lowering it is on my list of "to do's". I'm not sure if I want to get some efiny badges or keep the mazda badges. Im also deciding between some coilovers or springs. Any suggestions would be great.

Nice! I would keep the mazda emblems IMHO.

I would go with what Howard Coleman recommends for springs. Eibach Pro kits.

plus it is more cost effective if do not plan to track your car.

congrats! Good to see more women with FD's back on the forum.

Black emblems might look pretty good on the orange. Especially with tinted windows and black wheels. Some people love it, some hate it.

ya, we figured we would paint the engine bay down the road when we pulled the motor for some other reason other than just to paint it.
