    44k later... Wife ordered it for my b-day. She wrote a note to CS saying "if he doesnt like it he can go F himself", so CS wrote that little post card. Installed it Saturday, didn't take long, I didn't strip anything, woot. I think I also fixed a flapping plastic noise I would hear at highway speeds. 1 of those little plastic screw/rivet things on the front of the under tray things came undone. Overall W for the day

      I lied, the flapping noise still persists....

        Received some window visors for my birthday as well. I really like them, super sleek you can barely tell they're there. Rolled doen the front 2 windows this morning, got some decent airflow, never had rain guards so not sure how much flow is good flow

          Got rid of the GPS, un-routed the cable from behind the stereo and what not, took off the little disk the mount would suction to.

            So nothing crazy has happened, finally got my windshield banner made, new HID fog lights, wrapped the car white.

            First a spoiler went missing, oh yeah, got bored and was experimenting with white spray paint vs plastidip as sidewall paint (regular paint last longer and doesn't yellow with time). My 13 year old thought "legit" would be cool, she all hip at that age I guess...

            It was a slow process. My friend wants to own a wrap shop, he wanted practice, so he got some white on a black Friday deal and I got a free wrap. Not perfect but we will fix it as we go, just wanted to get the car all white first.

            Well, they make white mazdaspeed3's so we needed to add something to make me stand out so we decided to do a matte black accent panel

            Then it was all done. Worked on it a few hours almost every Saturday. Learned a lot, bumpers suck, cutting sucks, glassing sucks, so basically wrapping sucks haha.

            More birthday presents, neo-chrome washers for the plate to make it look less basic. The pollen was free from mother nature.
