from my research - just some JDM are plastic just like some Euro are plastic... I'm not sure what determines whether they got plastic or glass - maybe it's determined by that particular country's laws around safety?

Moon get some more updates up, I love the flat black on the mx3 sooooo much by the way.

not much to update until I go get the car at the end of June... until then it's in a warehouse in Memphis, TN

hey what all do you have planned for the car when you do get it outa storage? besides driving it all the time, you're gonna have to get out of it eventually! haha

Once I make the roadtrip out here I will swap the black glass headlight set in, I'll figure out if I'm installing the all leather backseat, but that's about it...

eventually it will need a new coat of primer/ flat black - whatever I decide to do and then I need to reclear all the CF parts as the sun has damaged the clearcoat badly

I am thinking seriously about getting the slotted vent hood from the NL....

that's about it though for now...

I have been reunited with the fast car and wow it's like night and day from driving the slow car

I'm going to have alot of fun on my upcoming 2400 mile road trip

I applied a new coat of MoonWax yesterday and the fast car looks fresh... I'll post pics when I return home

ok it's been a while since I have posted a ton of pics so it's time again...

Here's some shots before the newest primer coat:




my car looks small behind barry's MS6 - I took 2 loads of mx-3 interior pieces to a local dumpster





I was so excited to give the fast car a fresh new coat of MoonWax we also did my buddies CRX since he has a 2 bay garage


































reunited and given a bath after the 2400 mile roadtrip






OH and my new favorite pics from outside a wendy's in wyoming

I'm diggin' that Tennessee plate; that's awesome.

Anyway, that paint job looks pretty good for the price: good deal.

Wow you guys are rally good. Looks really good.

first class work as usual Mark DIY ftw!

I really like the hood. Is that a carbon fiber mazdaspeed hood? Where did you get it?

thanks for the compliments guys!

the hood is just the invader style CF hood... I got it on a group buy on this board years ago. I don't think that this hood fits the mx-3 very well since it is so boxy and generic (alot of cars have this design of hood)... I really want to get the CF hood from the NL with the slits in the sides....

ok well after much debate I finally decided to put the blacked out euro headlamps on the fast car and man... that was a GREAT decision - it looks SICK

This is how I painted the lights...

and I'm really upset because I can't get a good picture of how the lights look... anyways maybe you can see the difference here's the step by step installation I had to modify some of the tabs to fit near the hood pin bolts and then I used large washers if the tabs were missing...

...
I really have to get a set of glass lamps...
They look great, nice work as usual.
