Shizzles Mazda Dorito ute

Guide coat primer like the rotary gods always intended 

[Leone]

Yea ill plus 1 the primer and guide coat haha!

 

And to continue the trend, mirror tints all round, including the front window.

[igor]

And camo door cards too?

I vote red paint job. Red cars go faster

 

(unless it’s still has its original 1.3l motor in which case it’s almost certainly slower)

[shrike]

Factory RX3 colour, I vote White or Jewel green

[shizzl]

I am swayed more to the chocolate brown.

[kiwi808]

That’s looks like a metallic bronze colour? Looks bad ass.

Agree, I think it would look crisp in brown

[oldrx7]

Yellow?  Gotta be a true tribute build right?

[dabuzz]

Axle end float specs are in the Haynes Manual. If you don't have one flick me a message, I can take some pics of mine. 

You'll need a dial test indicator to do it properly though. 

Although plenty of people just chuck a few shims in and call it a day.
