pics of my new MR

just thought I would post some pictures of my MR. I just installed the Works Ride Springs and tinted the windows with 15%. I dig the drop the Works springs gave the car and the ride and handling are about the same as stock.





This is a picture of my Sony. This headunit is killer. Not many fancy gizmos but the sound is awesome. This particular Sony has it all - DSO, BBE, EQ7, 3 sets of RCA's, Sub woofer control, HPF, LPF and my favorite - multiple colors. The red matches my gauges. Right now I have just the Sony powering my Kicker 6 1/2 seperates up front and Kicker 6 1/2 coaxial speakers in the rear deck. The Sony pushes 52 wattsX4 and sounds killer through the Kicker's.

I have the Ride springs with my MR too. It's a great combination with the Bilstein shocks.

YEP, i wanted that color bad on my 05, but i'm too cheap to buy the MR. Settled for silver which is my runner up on the color list!

Drop looks very suttle. I like!

Really nice car, I am between getting the GG or the white. The rims plus the tint look really f'in sharp on that color. Also, thanks for the info on the springs I am planning on the mr also and was going to do the hotchkis...maybe not. How is the highway road feel with those springs, I would be doing about 75% hwy driving. Thanks! awesome new car im jealous

I liked my MR when it was stock but I can't believe how much the drop and tint changed the look of the car. Now I love my MR - it looks mean as hell. The only 2 other things I want are the Ralliart CF lip and the JDM rear bumper. It's just a bummer the JDM bumper don't come in GG. I'm just going to have to find a good body shop here in WA that can paint and fit the bumper.

The springs ride great on the hwy. Actually, like I said, the car rides pretty much as it did when it was stock. I love these Works springs, they deffinetly get a big from me.

The tint rocks at night. I don't get the blinding light from all the pickups and SUV's this great country has on the road. That used to really **** me off, constantly flipping my rearview mirror up and down to avoid being blinded. Now it's just like I have a pair of sunglasses on - at night.
