Here are a couple of more angles. As you can see I'm missing a fmic. That will probably be my next purchase eventually, any recommendations?

You're running some good camber in the rear. Are these MB Weapons 18x9 +38?

like DIY style? needs a slight adjustment on the fitment near the bottom of the fenders, but looks pretty decent.

They are 235/40's, and I'm lowered on the cobb sport springs that dropped it an 1" front and rear, I didn't change the extra camber that lowering gave it...
It is actually vinyl wrapped, I've got a huge ass roll of flat black 5 year out door vinyl, the front grill wing/emblem is also all wrapped in vinyl...

(first)
A huge win for painting the front emblem to match body color! I am not a fan of painting the emblems black so they stick out like a sore thumb on a colored car... This is the first one I think I've seen paint it body color, and possibly became my favorite MS3 on here! I could do without the hood, but at the same time I think it makes it unique and different! Props!
Go get some nice black rims (maybe with a red lip) and lower it and I will probably want to (idhitit) your car

How the hell did you get a clean wrap on the front grille? I'd love to do that to mine instead of paint it.
I'm wondering the same!

Well I've done a lot of practicing on my car, I used to have the whole roof flat black, as well as the hood, stripes off the headlights/tailights, side skirts, I made a mazda emblem for the rear out of flat black so it was flush with the body. I have since taken all that off, thats the beauty of vinyl, it allows you to change your mind, if it leaves some residue some goo gone gets takes it off real quick. I've found the best method for putting the vinyl on is to use a blow drier(heat guns get too hot) and warm up the vinyl slightly and form it slowly over all the surfaces, it just takes practice, I practiced a lot on the door handles....
Here iss some older pics from when I used to have all that vinyl on my car...
She sure has come a long ways since then...
