What have you done to your Mazda6 today?

[OJ Bartley]

Damn, that's bright!!!

 

[Jay Davidson]

Lookin' good. Looks like my setup used to, actually. Neither of my fogs from DDM tuning are working these days; they flicker on for about a tenth of a second when I first turn the switch, but then turn off right away. I don't know if it's the ballasts or what. I'll have to do some investigating this spring.

I used the ones from ddm tuning. But I also have the xentecs.

Xentecs FTW.

 

[kahmikahze]

maybe it's the lights themselves? maybe they got damaged somehow?

 

[kahmikahze]

Xentecs FTW.

i was gonna use them until I found my blunder.

Lip Kit

Installed the Next Mod AE replica front lip..... (yippy)

I like it!

Hopefully installing the sides this week!....

More full pics in my Album. http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/album.php?albumid=671

Sorry for the low quality pics. Only had the phone at the time.

Finally installed my oil catch can I've had sitting in a closet for about a year, ha ha

Lip looks sweet! Especially on white with the black emblem.

My car is just chilling in the garage on the spare, lol.

Thanks!

The OEM grill will be replaced very soon! Just waiting to be prepped and finished so I can install it. Hopefully it will tie all the front end enhancements together.

Looks good. I think you should get your rear painted back to stock black (I know you didn't paint it)...

driver's side foglamp is out.....
>.<

I stopped by a stereo shop this weekend and I was told a "Module" (Read: fancy computer communicating wiring harness) doesnt exist for my car. He said without that if I install a aftermarket head unit I could get random electronic failures and could cause computer codes when I tap into wires without one. Is that an accurate assessment? Its a stereo shop/alarm/tint place, you would think they wouldnt say that if it wasnt true. Losing a sale and all.

Metra makes a dash kit for the 6/MS6 but it's $150+ at most retailers. Also, the finish is designed for the regular 6, and doesn't match up with the rest of the trim panels, unless you refinish them.

Looks great dude. Your front end is so clean compared to mine! No chips, no scuffs... I don't think that lip would last a month on my car and I'm not even lowered. Between speed bumps, angled driveways, and curbs (not to mention snow) I'm just not gonna try.

driver's side foglamp is out.....

OK, one more reason for me to stay happy with my Nokyas. Never had a problem and they've been in there 2+ years.

Nice sub! I like their home stuff, but haven't heard much about their car subs. How's it sound??

 

[Funkster777]

Dead battery this morning. 3 1/2 hour wait for AAA (I need to get a jump kit). New Duralast battery but it is shorter than stock so the bar does hold it down. I'm sure others have run across this. My thought is to put something under the battery to make it taller. Any ideas about what would be safe or methods that you used?

 

[JDM-P5]

Went to crank the Miata. Dead.
Problem is..battery is in the trunk & I have to pull the sub/amp cover off. Not hard, just a PITA sometimes....might just wait til it warms up.
