I repainted the 626 lip Deep Blue. It's a little lighter than the rest of the car. Its a nice colour, might be the colour i paint the rest of the car.

Heres a couple other pics I took today. Notice I removed the Mazdaspeed windshield decal. I felt it was about time to get rid of it, plus I think it gives the front a cleaner look. Also it was a little crooked.

Thanks for the reply. I just dropped the motor in last week, and unfortunately I wasn't able to even drive it back to Columbus where I live. The radiator fan won't kick on, and I didn't have time to look into the problem, so I didn't want to make the hour drive home. The car runs, and sounds great. I'm going to be in the break-in period for a little while now, I'm going to take it easy on the new engine until I've driven about 500-1000 miles on it. I have never dynoed the car, but hopefully in the spring, I'll have done some more mods, and I'll get some numbers out there. I'm also on MX6.com, same S/N. I'll look for panther37 and ask about the gauges. Thanks.
