Let's see some Mazda3 5-doors

yeah like tungsten posted all those pics of my car, thats what stechs will look like on a 3 hatch and i would def. recommend them i love my teins
 
a couple of people were talking about the s-tech for the 2nd gens on the other forum and i looked to see what the difference is and it seems the ones the came out with on the new gens is more like a prokit drop, pretty even and only like 1.2. Kind of disappointing because I think the 2nd gens need more drop than the 1st lol.
 
Nope your can run them on your stockers... your ride quality might suck after awhile and your struts will wear out faster. but thats it.

Pretty sure levi has like 40k+ on his stock struts+stechs
 
My Mazda? Those were XPEL Carbon Film. I also have that Carbon Film on an '05 Evo.

I also have it on the gas door and the Mazda badge on the front of the car.

Gosh DANG IT!!!!!!! I go to Logans to meet my family and my freaking step-sister-in-law backs right into the front driver side of my Mazda. The good thing about it though, CLEAR BRA!!!!!!!! No scratch, dent of broken lights. I guess my Mazda can handel a Ford Explorer!! I will have to take pics of it tomorrow since it's 8:30PM right now.

oh yeah, she was too busy talking on her cell phone. When I arrived, I was honking my cars horn. Got out and walked up to the back front driver side door knocking one all the windows and doors. She never heard any of that, although her husband did sitting inside his Jeep sitting right next to his. I can't remember if she is a blond or not. HA HA HA.....

i question whether he knows what hes talking about haha

yeah they are pretty "off road" status, but what struts are you running? stocks or bilsteins? and would it be bad to run stechs on my stock struts?

im running stock shocks/struts on my stechs and have been for around 40-50k and they still are dampening like they should so no signs of them going yet (knock on wood) haha

thats creepy you know how many miles and such i have on my car...
 
I'm on Progress springs and stock shocks and mine went sometime during the middle of this summer. I'm still riding on them but its not pleasant. Car is about to go into storage so I'll stock up on parts over winter.

All that is wrong with it is a lil dent from the quarter panel and marks on the driverside headlight protectant film.
 
Bought the front street unit M emblem like an idiot, But painted the back ones black. Let me know what you guys think.

 
not that confusing really....he is telling you how to mod your car to his liking....take your headlights off...place them in your oven to open them up...then remove the chrome by painting it black to match the rest of the housing...bake headlights again to seal them back up....post new pictures and wait for tungsten6's approval and suggestions on next modifications to your vehicle.
 
Tell me why I was thinking about that yesterday when i was painting my badges! Haha that looks really cool. But i am pretty sure my parents wont let me bake my headlights. haha

What did you use to paint your side markers? or is it film?
