    Here is the finish I should be getting. My powdercoater wants to do a brushed finish under the translucent copper top coat as well. Should be really cool!

    Yeah, I will always love the black on black look. It really sucks that the powdercoating on the wheels was done so poorly. It literally was chipping away from just regular driving....There was so many small/big chips taken out of it with the raw silver finish showing through underneath...

    I felt like if I was going to re-finish them, that I should try something new to get my money's worth out of it haha. Copper should be pretty nice and will go with my copper hardlines in the trunk also! I'm excited to see the finish, there is a guy I follow on IG that has copper powdercoating in his engine bay and I am pretty sure that's the same finish my powdercoater is going to be doing! I'll find a picture

    So the rear spoiler is already being painted, I should have it back in a week. I wasn't able to test fit it, so no pictures of that yet :/

    I also curbed one of my wheels the other day and needless to say I am very bummed lol but the powder coating on my wheels was very poorly done anyways and is literally thinner than printer paper....that being said, I am having the wheels refinished and the rashed one repaired this coming week. I have decided to go with a copper finish. Here is a photoshopped picture of what the finish will look like:

    Just ordered a GV rear Spoiler for my car. Once I get it in and painted, I am going to see if I can get a Mazdaspeed styled Gurney flap attached to the end of it.

    Here is the spoiler I got on another Mazda that has been retired from the game:






    I think it will make the car look even cleaner! Plus my current spoiler has really bad paint damage from years of California heat/sun. It's been bugging the crap out of me and now I can finally replace it lol

    I need more interesting spots to shoot. But I changed out my old quick releases for something more durable lol

    Also, I drive too low on the freeway, already cracked the lip and took a chunk out of it spare stickers will keep it together for now lol

    Thanks man! Yeah, I'm glad I decided to black everything out! The wheels also flowed a lot better with the car than I originally thought they would lol

    haha thank you

    Near future: I plan on buying a second compressor and mirroring my trunk setup on the other side. I am SOOOO ready for faster fill up times already haha
    I also want to work on adding more camber soon, but I have seen some scary posts recently from sidewalls going out though so idk if i want to push it too much yet :/ I can't afford to get stranded on the freeway. I daily this thing about 80+ miles a day.

    Also, this probably won't be near future but i want it to be haha. I need to replace my grille and I am looking at a Garage Vary spoiler to replace my lifted OEM one since the paint on it has completely gone to shiiiitttt on it. MAkes me sick looking at it up close


    Late future: 3 Piece wheels are definitely on the top of the list.I am also looking into wrapping the car since my paint has really taken a shiiiiitttt over the years from driving on the freeway constantly for my commute to work.
    My friend really wants me to do fender flares and go wider as well, which I am considering
