So anyway sorta back to the topic, did you know if the antenna's off the focus and vw are the solid plastic style or the flexible ones?



btw I got some carbon-fibre delivered from a us company the other day. I'm gonna start making some carbon-fibre stuff. Might fix up my dash with carbon fiber.

Cool.I think the focus is the flexible plastic.My aunt has a 02 focus 4dr and looks really flexible.

haha "looks flexible" hey aunt, mind if I look at your antenna ...snap... oh ****....umm .. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif

j/k

I'm pretty sure it is flexible tho.I know the VW one is.I saw one at a wrecker before and saw how far it could bend.I think they are both similar tho.

I was just thinking that if it was like a hard piece of moulded plastic with the antenna through the middle, I might be able to carbon fibre it. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

the On-Star one has a plastic base but the antenna part is hard rubber.

Hmmm, that sounds carbon-fibre-able. I might look into it in a couple of weeks when I go to weld up new metal into my roof. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

Remember we need more rust pics of that roof too. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png Might want to put out a warning for 56K users. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Yeah, I'm going to have to get snap happy with the digi cam. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

I'm going to see if I can get some replacement panels for the roof instead of trying to fix up the rusted out ones. Might have to ask Mike about what I can and can't get from Mazda. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

Cool.If anyone know about replacements its him.

ok thanks

i like the red one

i think you can still buy the roof panel, but the quarter panels are no longer available



mike

I'll take some pics tonight. I looked in the parts book of www.iluvmyrx7.com, and I couldn't really see what I'm looking for. but that things not 100% in usability. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683358.gif

I'll take some pics and show you what I mean anyway. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

Bigger wheels means stiffer ride.The guy with the GSL-SE on 17's says he dropped it down 2" and still doesn't rub.His wheels and new paint bring that stock body back to life.

alright saweet https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683329.gif

Sorry it took so long to answer. Been kinda busy with our "Desert Excursion" https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/cool.png



Basically just about everything on the car has been re-done in one way shape or form. The engine is a large street port Turbo engine/transmission. Full 3" exhaust and downpipe. FMIC. 6-puck clutch. A-pilar/console gauges. Full body kit with custom nose. All polyeurethane bushings. 15x7 Snypers.



You could fit 17"s. I gotta friend with a set. But as stated you'll need an SE suspension, unless you've got the money to have some special made. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png



There's more to come soon. Got a few more engine mods to go. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

Hey Mike,

these are some pieces of the roof that I would rather replace new than fix, do you reckon mazda would have em?? and if yes, do you know the part numbers? I looked but wasn't exactly sure, the diagrams weren't too good.

Drifter,You might need to go hunting at a wrecker for the sunroof surround.That one has seen better days.Where is that other piece from?



Luis

Thats part of the sunroof too. One of the interior metal panels. Theres like 4 or 5 interior metal panels all spot welded in holding the sunroof together. And most of mine are rusted. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub..._DIR#>/sad.png

That inner surround is spot welded in about 20 places, I dont think I can get a used one without it getting/being damaged, I need to either go new or fix it myself.

I hope Mike has a part number for you then. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...R#>/unsure.png

Yeah, you and me both! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

You mean I have to get the whole roof?? I thought maybe I could just get that inner pannel part?
