decided i wanted away with the chrome grille.....and this is what my front end camme up looking like

before


after


and a pic of my 2inch up and 2inch back shifter extension.....soo much more comfortable now, cuz i have short arms.



and finally....drove a 2.5hour round trip just to get this thing......




gunna wait till i get my rollpan in too so i can try and gget the two painted all at once

 

I love your truck. You gonna get the grill shell painted to match the rest of the truck. I don't really like it black.

 

i will honestly say its the only mazda i have ever liked and its gonna look **** with that hood!

 

thanks.
im thinkin about it.....really am....

 

i would paint the grill to match too i dont like it black i liked the chrome better

 

grille looks a million times better IMO
nice work man

 

looks awesome, but you need to tie in more black. maybe the headlight mod or something once you get rid of those cataracts

 

I liked the chrome on the grill better, but I love your truck all around.
I personally would have done away with the chrome bumper before i did away with the chrome grill.

 

Dude sick mazda! get the damn pan already!

 

The chrome definitely makes it pop! Keep up the good work!

 

kinda cant. even with the newer style mazda headlights (the ones i want/need to run hid's) are still a single housing....so no spot to really spray black....

lol i want it too....but i just got an email saying "built upon order".....so maybe next week i hope?

 

Slick looking truck!

 

dude im loving your build its like a experiment box of stuff i wanna do to mine i cant wait to see how the p-dome hood looks ive been woundering if they would fit our trucks

 

they most definitely should.
its just up to how badass its gunna look

 

I love the look of those cal views. Paint those to match too!

 

god...i have money....but not that much.
why dont you come and paint match em for me?!

 

looks good, I think the hood will look sweet on their.

 

How thick is that shifter extension? I had issues with mine bending. Not I have some 3/4 " plate I got from work. NO more bending now lol

 

like 1/4" thick....i really cant see myself bending it though. before i covered it all back up, i was screwin around trying to get iit to budge, but nothhing. otherwise, i woulda sandwiched it like i had planned, but i didnt feel the need to. 3/4" seems like overkill...

 

ive been unsure cuz i havnt seen a mazda with one i look at some rangers like the ones with the honeycomb grills and they look like it would work and then i look at others with the h-bar grills and they look like they wont

are there changes to the p-dome hoods on different years?

i cant wait to see it on your truck man

 

Yea it was overkill lol I'll admit that. but I went from about 1/8th lol. Over kill is the name of the game with me, plus I got it for free, and with the plasma it was easy to cut out

 

WOW....don't think I've ever seen a Maz with a powerdome!!!!



Once again, steering my brain into thinking a mazda would look sick next to dbl lift DWB!

Nice extention you got there too btw. Mine's 1/4" stock. 2.5" up/1 1/8" back/ 1/4" towards me.

 

thanks alot guys.

and turns out my rollpan might be coming in on monday.....so if im lucky.....in the body shop thursday or friday???? god i hope so....

 

cant wait to see your truck with the power dome hood man gonna be very different
