Finally we got a day of sunshine....my sons and I decided to do a wash and wax....I included pix of their cars even though they're not 8s.....my 23 yr old son has an M3 and my 19yr old has a Tc......it's just pretty cool that we have the same interests....they asked me what I wanted for Mothers day....I told them a gift certificate towards my catback....aint sons grand!!!! :D
PS. I finally put my finishers on...

wild...you have the 3 cars I was considering when I was new car shopping. I think I made the right choice!

Any sunroof rattles in the tC? That scared me away from those.

my son hasnt mentioned anything yet so far....we have had our share of Mazdas.......my first was a 6, the first year it came out....traded it in on an SUV (adopted a greyhound)...he took up the whole back seat of the 6 (speed yellow)....then my son bought the 5MT M3 5dr hatch last year....couldnt persuade my other son to get a mazda....he chose the TC....comparably priced with the M3.....when he got the TC this past February, I got jealous and bought the shinka in March...kept the SUV for the inclement weather and dog...he put a short-throw in the TC last week...
PS...I agree, you made the right choice!

I have been eyeing those exhaust finishers for a while now. They look great. What is involved with installing them, and where did you get them and how much?

shinka213

it really wasnt that difficult.....I bought them used from a guy who put on a MS bumper...he sent them to me already mounted inside the corner bumper piece.....that corner piece is easy to pry off....ya gotta remove to pins (2) from the bottom first.....the actual finisher is held on with one screw (to the bumper)...if I can do it....anyone can!!!

Congratulations and good for you! We've had g-hounds for almost 20 years, and they are just awesome!

I really like the look of those TCs. Saw one yesterday at the theater and I think they look pretty cool.
