[color=#000000:post_uid1]Think it will be a case of hand-me-downs.
Those 17"s look a bit small on your car mik, but I
think would look smick on Leanne's car. Maybe
time for 18"s now !!

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Haha!
Mick already has his 14's to give to me, he's gonna take that black paint off em and make em nice and clean...its just for now until he upgrades from the 17's i got him :p then they'll be goin on my car :D
He's already gave me a kenwood deck, 6 stacker and a 15" marathon sub, so i got the system sorted out. Just gotta get a couple amps to run it...hint hint Michael :;):

[color=#0000FF:post_uid2]LOL start saving? No need hehehe
Gimme a week or so and i'll find a couple amps. About buying all the mods for Leanne's car, I'll do what I can. Make the missus happy :D
Definite case of hand me downs Mal...she will be getting those 17's for sure. And I'll be puttin new tyres on em before I give them to her. mmmm 18's sound nice :D wouldnt mind going lower either....maybe those king springs will migrate to Leanne's car when i give her the mags too :cool:

[color=#F52887:post_uid7]Hey guys,
I picked up my car yesterday....so beautiful! I've had some photos taken so I'll post them up tomorrow.
I'm still trying to get the hang of driving it though :O I havent been driving for soooo long, but I'm getting better.
It'll be good not having to catch the bus everywhere now... and I think I might be chauffeur for Mick for a while, after all, he's been driving me around everywhere for almost 4 years now lol :O :p

[color=#000000:post_uid1]Well done babe.
Sure it wont be long before it has the clear indicators
and all the other good bits we have taken ages to
work out how to do. Can see the day come real
quick for the fight over who's Astina gets the garage
and who's the driveway !!

[color=#FF00FF:post_uid2]hey sabretooth, there should be 3 pics on the link. 2 of my car, and one of my engine bay. I'll be taking some more pics later on and I'll get Mick to put them on his site. Dont think I'll get a spoiler, I like the look without one.
thanks for all the congrats guys, im pretty glad I waited as long as I did to get it. It sure was worth it. Hey Eric, I think you're confusing the pimp look with something Michael would go for lol....I'm just going to adopt his 17's when he upgrades. :p
Mick is organising my indicators this week. I've decided not to put a kit on it just yet...I'm just going to lower it 2 1/2 inches and slap on some 17's...get that slick look goin on.
And Mal....When we get a house, we gonna have a double garage, that way no one misses out :p :D

[color=#000000:post_uid1]The Mazda logo badges remain cause they have holes but
the 323Astina and the Mazda word badges can come off no
probs.
Mick,
Buy a section of 45deg 3" stainless pipe to direct the
filter right into the corner of the guard above the hole
where the aircon stuff is. Cost is around $30 but reduces
the amount of hot engine air it drags in. I got pictures
to show you if you want.
