I like the red calipers with the red body color...it fits very well. I also like the your rear view mirror design...i'm still not sure which name I like better MPS or Mazdaspeed...both sound pretty badass.
 
It's funny how your CAI says mazdaspeed...in the UK should it say MPS? Maybe Mazda's performance parts are simply known as mazdaspeed all over the place...it just seems a little inconsistent.
 
I like the mirrors and headrest for the middle seat in the back. Does this headrest slide into the top of the seat like on the passenger and drivers side?
 
Is it just me, but is your right tail light different from the left?
Nice MPS, you picked the best color. (2thumbs)
 
very cool.. wish our side mirrors were like that. the red calipers are pretty sweet too. did they come stock like that? funny how mph gets top billing. I thought the rest of the world was metric.
 
theres a simple answer fo the CAI, there are no aftermarket parts for this car in UK, i ordered it from a mazda dealer in California.
If we want anything mazdaspeed/spoon/mugen/toms we have to import it, only Japanese parts readily available are for evos and scoobys, it works out a lot cheaper than buying parts in this country mostly anyway, even after $50 -$100 delivery and customs fees

The tail lights have a fog in them yes, in UK on the right and all other countries that drive on the wrong side of the road, on the left light.

I painted my calipers myself using hammerite high strength iron fence paint, the colour match is almost perfect.

We in UK arent metric, thats the EU, they tried to make UK metric so we are kind of both, they made it illegal to display things in imperial but people still did it so a couple of months ago they gave up and said UK can keep its miles and lbs and ozs.
But mostly our roads are in miles and our food is in kilos and grams and cars are weighed in metric tons.

Most people under the age of 30 in UK can work out miles, yards, feet and inches and cm, metres and kilometres cos of the messup in government we had to be taught both as they didnt know what system would be used in future.

The middle headrest slots into holes the same as the 2 side seats in the rear.

^^^correct. All European cars are required by law to have a fog light in the tailights.

I found it the most annoying thing to be behind a Mercedez with their fog lights on. That thing is so bright when no fog is present.
French laws prohibit their use during non foggy days.
 
Audi's have brighter rear fogs than mercedes do. I did notice that BMWs in the US dont have active rear foglights.

How bright is that rear foglight on your MPS anyhow? Is it a standard 7440 bulb or a halogen? I think it looks trick!
