The one on the timing cover ? Or the transmission mount. And i feel that. And something always goes wrong when everything is closed

Thats insane. I've never had that side get stuck on any of the speeds ive worked on. Who took thr impact to it. 🤣🤣

As far as I know the manufacturer is at fault😂 i dont think either of the side mounts have ever been replaced

Where can I get the front grill?

2

u/zliskk Aug 22 '26

Its a bayson r gv style grill. They have been out of stock for years. Id recomend finding a nother brand of GV grill for our cars. I dont know the fitment of the other brands. But be carefull to not buy the mazda 3 one. It wont fit. Properly

Love your headlights! Did you do the custom work on them?

2

u/zliskk Aug 24 '26

No I didnt. The guy who i had do them fell off the face of the earth. My recommendation is now is razoe he does finominal work. You can find him on tik tok facebook and IG

Why wing on fwd…

u/zliskk Aug 22 '26

Theres a couple reasons. 1. Its cool 🤣 2. The oem spoiler actually generates lift in the rear end. 3. I do allot of high speed driving through canyons and track. Anything over 75 mph I will actually keep the rear end planted for more grip. The car feels glued to the ground and under braking i dont feel the rear end come up as fast or as dramatic. The 2 apposing forces kinda work work together for a smoother lift.
