2012 Mazda 2 Touring 5 speed
Hey all! Just bought a spirited green touring 5 speed. First fwd car I've ever owned. My first 2 were e30 BMW's and my last one was a Kompressor coupe. I'm already eyeballing the antennae and license plate mods from corksport, any other quick/cheap mods for the -2 I should look into? Thanks!

How about window tint. Mud flaps. Clear film for front bumper and front part of hood. Scotch guard seats. Aquapel for front windscreen.

Does it get cold in the winter where you are? If yes, then you will need winter tires and rims.
 
Wow, you know I never would've thought of any of that. I'll definitely pick some of that up, thanks!
 
Look around these forums. There are tons of easy to do things, just depends on how much you wanna spend :P

Also Welcome!

I dunno, by the time you pay to buy the protective stuff and have it put on you could almost order an AutoEXE bumper lol.

Lol, +1. I say start with the Corksport stubby antennae, $38.00 I believe. Window tint is definitely a must. I'd love to have splash guards myself but paying $60.00 a set for plastic isn't on my priority list right now. Any who, great looking 2 :)
 
If you're used to RWD cars, it would probably be a good idea to go with modifications that will make the car understeer less. First thing I bought was a rear torsion bar.
 
Just ordered the antennae from corksport. That's not a PLASTIC exhaust manifold I'm seeing at the front is it?!?!
