    I sponsored a regional Mazda car show called Mazdafest this past Saturday. After detailing the event coordinator's RX-8 prior to the event, which I'll post later, his friend decided to have his RX-8 detailed for Mazdafest as well.

    Sorry, the interior pics didn't turn out too well with the sun overhead. Should have taken them inside my facility.

    I just ran out of Hyper-Dressing so the wells weren't treated.

    Nice! I wish I'd been able to attend Mazdafest. Seems like a fellow Mazdaspeed3 owner was more unfortunate than I was recently and chucked a rod out his block on the way home from there.
