You car looks alot like how I want mine to turn out. I have some flat black OZ Ultraleggeras and just got my S techs in the mail. How much was the install/alignment for your springs? I love the way the greddy looks with the paint too. I'm going full racing beat tho.

these were posted elsewhere but I figured I'd post them here too.
The car looks a little different now but I haven't taken any pictures worth posting. Hopefully I get around to taking some good pics soon.

I like those wheels, are they the Mazdaspeed models designed for the Mazdaspeed 6? Not the OE, but still mazdaspeed.

I need some Koni yellows so I can hurry up and drop

Yes and no. They are OEM Mazdaspeed, which were offered to Canadians as a MS Package (not sure about south of the boarder...). They were also offered to MS6's, but I believe they were a slightly different style.

They're up for sale, if you're interested

looks nice!
2 cons:
1. Auto. But, that's minor
2. Replica MS body. Very slight fitment issues that I notice, but not too bad (notice slight sagging bottom rear).

Other than that, I'd say it's a good buy. Even worth it to possibly ship. (I'm sure someone local could give it a test drive for ya )
