well as it seems lately my camera timing is a bit off lol, but here's some after shots of the plugs and harnesses were tucked and loomed/taped.



here's the right fender harness before tho, note the quick fix on the headlight harness, idk what happened there lol,



but now it's all cleaned up

[gambit686]

Looks good!

[Mazda_Powered]

thanks man, also decided to clean the car...took 6 rags and a can of lacquer thinner to her since there was still tons of primer left on her from before she was mine lol. Then hit it with some Maguire quick detail wax to her afterwards...

Nice clean up. That bay looks mint.

[wgnths]

great job on the tuck and the IC setup is really growing onto me now. I like!

[Mazda_Powered]

thanks guys! thinking about picking up some cheap white paint and touching up the chipped/bare sections so it'll at least pass for respectable from far or in pictures haha.

Pretty sure the hood's staying blue til I paint it though lol, don't wanna cause to much extra work down the road for myself.

I also worked on the wiring in the trunk today too, wiring up the spoiler brake light, and misc...still not done, but I found a plug to solder to my spoiler harness to plug into the old brake light plug lol.

You should see if they can get the right paint code and put it into an aerosal can for you.

[Mazda_Powered]

ya, they can, but it's $30 a can, which is what I did for the engine bay...ended up costing way to much in the end and I wasn't happy with the results either lol. I'm actually re-painting the engine bay :S

cheap white rustoleum paint will work just fine for now lol

[protegemartin]

That bay looks kinda naked without the intake piping, looks tits tho! Nice tuck!

[Mazda_Powered]

ya it definitely does lol, can't wait to get them back...

[Mazda_Powered]

well did some more cleaning today since my piping isn't done yet...lol I love waiting on other people.

started out like this



with some nasty doors lol, mildew/mould/dirt/primer





after some lacquer lol





then to the other side





all cleaned up







then to the trunk, since it was pretty bad lol



found a bunch of **** I didn't want to find...



yep....



other side is ok



partially cleaned up

[Mazda_Powered]

well I'm 100% sure that the left rear quarter was replaced, probably from an accident. I can tell by the inside of the trunk on the left side is black, where as the right side is still oem white. Also makes sense as to why the car was painted, and that the rear sway bar mount tab had to be rewelded, and why there's so much negative camber on the left rear tire...this ruins my day completely...makes sense why the left doors need a bit of tweaking to close true...SDALF:K£"$_)SDFLKSDFO£"$%!!!!!!!!!!!









wire wheeled it and hit it with some primer for now...sick of looking at this ****

[mazda1993]

Woww your engine bay is soooo clean! I will probably but the baterie in the trunk and clean my engine bay cause its Fu*** dirty!

[Mazda_Powered]

haha thanks man! my bay is the dirtiest thing on the car right now haha, gotta wash it with soap/water since it was spray bombed (no hardener), so I'll do that some other time.

[The Pile]
