Joe,

Nice car, however, there is already a second gen BRG thread going (http://mazdaroadster.net/showthread.php?964-2nd-Gen-BRG-aka-the-all-mighty-2001-SE ). Perhaps a moderator can combine yours into that one.

-Cheers,

Jim

Nice!

Merged threads.

What's the story behind that wife sticker? She do that damage I assume?

[joe morreale]

I made that sticker after my wife backed into my car. I was sooo pissed. I told her don't back up I'm parked behind you and she did it anyway. Crunched the bumper on our Toyota van. Ironically this was the second time she did the exact same thing, same size dent and everything. I decided rather than be mad forever I would make the sticker with the frown face. She gets pissed because people think the sticker is funny or cute whenever it is posted. Blames the car for being too low, she couldn't see it. Good thing it wasn't a kid on a tricycle.

[WASABI]

Tell her "Make me a sammich", cause in the kitchen, she can't wreck your car...hopefully.

-Jim

PS Funny sticker, because my wife did the same thing.

Shane,
Did you delete the pin stripe (can't tell)?
Mine has a spot or two that got messed up and I was thinking about getting rid of all of it. I think it's too much bling. Yours shows the lines better.

[shane]

Pinstripe? My car didn't have that, I believe that is a dealer added option on some. If yours is vinyl that should be easy, I once had a civic where it was painted on, much harder to remove.

[turbotyla]

keep it coming

[shane]

Looks serious :D

[turbotyla]

hopefully it gets serious haha.

now my car is all one color again. cant decide if i want the se badges back or not. also on the fence about doing the chevrons again but a little different. Next exterior thing will be small side skirts and painting these wheels white or black cant decide.

Current pic of my SE, brought to you by Gunwoo. Made my car look cleaner then it looks. lol. Thanks man

[turbotyla]

i love that car i have seen random shots of it before and always wondered what wheels they were.

also it made me want to get white wheels for my brg.

[turbotyla]

[nytonhiriosho]

^ Looks Awsome. Thanks Man. Yeah i traded my preivious wheels from a friend of mine. Told me to give them a whirl and instantly fell in love. They are nothing too special, just drag wheels plus they where lighter than my previous wheels. I used to have legit TE37 on my old NB. But they got stolen when they where barely new, which pissed me off cause of how much it cost me and all the hard work for somebody else to have them. So im happy with replica cheap brands. Yeah i have also seen many pics of ur ride at CR.net and now mazdaroadster.net. Ur ride has also been lookin awsome even with the changes. Good Job man

[turbotyla]

thanks man that means a lot. cant wait for th v6. and those wheels look like they have a decent lip.

and replica wheels are sweet. I would love legit wheels but its just not in the cards for me the wife wouldnt allow it haha.

[turbotyla]

dont let this die guys post more

[sadisticapethy]

Some of the recent:

Just to clarify, the Jam Pony Express sticker was only on the car for a car meet I was going to in Florida. Just an inside joke among some car friends of mine, but it also garnered me a gnarly $120 ticket from a not so friendly FL cop. "Obstruction of view." ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Pretty sure that page is out dated. There is a thread on miatanet that has some where around 400 of these cars pinned on a map with user names and build numbers.
