        Cool! FYI body kits don't fly in this forum unless is legit mazdaspeed or JDM Also you can get most of that stuff for cheap if you look at the right places. For example rims, you can find good sets on craigslist...

          That's just a muffler, not an exhaust *system*. I fixed that in your other thread, didn't realize you had 2, haha. Good luck with the build though

                        Probably forums are going to be your best choice. I know that MX6.com would probably have the most options. Also I forgot to tell you that the Rosemount junk yard has a white Probe GT with full tokyko adjustable struts with eibach lowering springs, you should greab it.
