Got a couple things planned for winter.

Got a spare set of headlights cleaned up and plan on retrofitting. Going to fully polish the Rotiforms, have an 03 rear lip to paint and install, and possibly new springs all around for the coilovers.

Thats all for now, will update as progress is made.

I was bummed my mazda was silver after I realized that I was going to turn it into a project. My imagination couldn't picture it looking like I wanted it too, and painting was hardly an option. But after seeing this, I may have changed my mind. Good work man!
