i picked up the rims off a guy on http://www.ozmpsclub.com/ for $400
3 of them had slight gutter rash but nothing major and the power coating filled in all the markings

I had to get them sandblasted which i managed to get done for $120

Then i got them powder coated black for $140

Tires were Nankang's 215/35/R18 $110 each fitted from Bob Jane

Hey so i haven't posted in a while got kinda lazy haha
Got new d1 spec race nuts and a carbon fiber shift boot from Jbs Customs in America

Boot installed

Put the wheel nuts on one wheel and wasent a fan so decided to not use them so now looking for some one to buy them.
Installed a Injen Cold Air intake with a blue Drift Pod Filter on the end



Installed 55w H.I.Ds in the fog lights which were a massive pain in the arse!
Had to drill out a new hole for the wires in the back of the fog light and then cut a hole in the fog light bracket on the front bumper.

Cheers guys.
Front bar isn't too hard to take off if you know what your doing. Once you have done it once its a piece of cake.
Sorry SP-20-DB just sold the wheel nuts yesterday man
I installed some bumper brackets that i bought in a group buy from America and i must say its by far the best modification i have ever done to the car any one who has bumper say should defiantly buy a set its worth its weight in gold! ill post pics later.
brackets can be bought here: http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showt...=1#post5640069

The horns are sickspeed horns found them on US eBay there are plenty of them there.
The short shift was the cheapest one I could find in eBay haha it's a no brand one. It's definatly shorter and a lot stiffer and I love it it's not as plush as a TMW but im super happy with it
