What have you done to your P5 today?

[magnumP5]

mmm. i just dunno what to do with the 3rd brakelight

There's a how-to which shows how to install the wing an the guy re-used the stock third brake light in a unique way.

I put her in the auto trader today

You just installed the turbo??? What happened???

 

[Foolish]

here's pics from another forum

I'm not looking at a stock one right now, but from those pictures, I don't see enough difference from stock to see the point of paying for the wing, paying to have it painted and figuring out what to do about the brake light. Looks like a lot of money and trouble for very little (if any) improvement.

But if you like it, cheers! (friday)

I have part numbers from TheMAN for the JDM 3rd brake light on the wagon's that didn't come wagons in Japan.

Efern, I hate you!

By the quality of that post, I'm surprised anything got put in! LOL


J/k dude, congrats. Did you just do the sides? I bought the RR Racing front and rear inserts...and then promptly took it to a shop my buddy works at. I don't care what you call me. I've done motor mounts in another car. A timing belt change. A water pump. Multiple suspensions on multiple cars. Exhausts. And some other assorted junk. You couldn't PAY me to do the rear mount on these cars!

Try swaping a KLZE into a 96 mx3.....I would rather do the rear mount on my p5 before i try that again.

^^^Congrats!!!! Looking clean as always!

Today I taped up and stuck my newly painted Protege5 emblem back on the hatch. All badges are painted with Krylon Fusion in satin. I am on the fence on whether or not to paint the entire Mazda symbol or leave the fanged 'M'.

Oh yeah, she is a tad bit dirty...but that is how I like my girs. lol

 

[Foolish]

I'd say either paint the whole logo, or cut off the top and bottom and leave the "M". Especially since the rest of the badges are black. Maybe paint and and cut it.
