yea so key things here:
A) the paint came like that, yes i know its keyed...everywhere.
B) yes thats black duct tape on the rear window, the window seals are shot from sitting for 4 years, and im more concerned with getting it running right first, so duct tape stops the leaks for now.
C) i didnt choose the headlight duct cover thing, came with the car
D) the license plate is screwed into the front bumper, again, came like that.
E) there is only 4 pics right now because i got stuck with a crappy camera that is prone to blurriness, once i can borrow my g/f's camera then ill get good pics
.
G) Almost forgot, yes those are plugs in the stock wings mounting holes, wing got ripped off when loading it onto the trailer, knew i shouldnt let my dad try pushing...
but anywho, enjoy. when i tidy up the engine bay a bit more and get the rest of my t-bolt clamps in and on i'll take pics of that
now for a list of things:
Mazdaspeed (replica prolly) C/F Hood
Stock Rims, Gloss Black, too lazy to check my tire size but rears are 245/something and fronts i think are 225/something.
GReddy/Trust Springs
Koni Struts
99-spec taillights
I think H4 Conversion headlights, dunno if theyre like that stock
7" Touchscreen headunit
under the hood is, Big streetport, t04z, PFS SMIC, full kgrails setup with 850/1600 injectors, PFC/Commander/Datalogit, K&N Cone Filter, Straight exhaust, no emissions, no A/C, no P/S, Ractive Strut Bar, Redone engine wiring harness....
in the mail are: full racingbeat sway bar set and Mazdatrix Short Throw shifter...and maybe more i cant remember.

Looks like a decent car...other from what you pointed out. What kind of state is the engine in?
engine is brand new now. bought it with a blown out hybrid motor of s5 and fd parts. and no turbo, and the engine bay falling apart.
so now i got Ihor and Rich to build me up a nice "big azz port" motor, swapped out basically everything but the e-shaft and front rotor with relatively new or brand new FD parts. got about 700 miles of break-in time on it now.
got the car for cheap, very cheap.
I've also only had it since december, when i got it it had been sitting for 4 years or so, so i'm basically in the middle of a complete restoration. basically in 3 months i took everything that was there apart, and replaced it with new ****, and got it running for the first time in 4 years. felt bad for the car when i first got it, so neglected.
