Blue Unit! :D

Looking really good. Three things I love:

-Amber sidemarkers
-Removed door mouldings & badges
-the front license plate placement (I want to get this done as well, what would I need to do?)

Good work Joe!

MazdaTree/Andrew, you\'re next eh?!:D

Ok the car is looking good but you guys are really starting to piss me off!

Time to break up this \"blue streak\" of yours and inject some passion.

Yeah I know I forgot to white it out.:p It\'s okay when I get my FLPSPEED plates it won\'t matter.

For the license bracket I flipped it upside down and bolted it to the short area of the grille that is solid.

Blue Unit! Andrew and ds2chan where you at?

Yeah during the PDI I told the tech not to drill the bumper just like during Majic\'s car\'s PDI.

well, i guess the rest of us . . . are stuck with out plates in the stock location

u think filling the holes and touch up paint would do it?
of would it be a repaint?

present!!

my car is a special Mazda3 Axela.. I\'m not sure if you guys can handle it.. :p

wow, those plugs are pricy.. I\'ve read that some people just buy regular plugs from like a hardware store, paint them using touch up paint, voila.. u should try that broli.. should work.. and much cheaper than $25US!!

Am I the only person on this forum that doesn\'t mind where my front plate is?

Edit:

I\'ll get some pics of mine up soon... I\'m going for my own photoshoot tomorrow... hopefully get some decent night/underground parking lot shots.

Nope, doesn\'t bother me either.

Yeah you\'re all saying that b/c you\'ll have two holes in your bumper.:p

I don\'t mind where it is. Having the plate in the lower grill almost makes the front of the car look like this...

I know...I really wish I knew that this could be done before I got my car. Thanks for the info about the plugs but I don\'t think it would look good. I guess its too late for me...

However...for my sister\'s brand new Pearl White sedan...I asked Prima to not drill the front bumper and put the license plate on the grill. :D
