whoa, thats actually pretty cool...im lovin those eyelids...i didnt like the wheels at first, then i stared at it for awhile...those are kinda tight...looks good on the car
the rims were actually straight from the mazdaspeed 6 concept from the 2002 geneva show. They are nice but in a more "luxury" sort of way. I took them off and added sportier rims below. BTW, dre what didnt you like about it? What can I change to make it look better?

edit: the pics aren't showing up for me but the links work, sorry for the inconveniance.
Speaking of the 3 looking bad ass...did anyone notice that they already have an AutoExe body kit for the damn thing! Corksport has it...that's fast!
Interesting idea on the pic, BTW...it'd be a royal pain to change out all those LEDs inside, though. I'm also not a huge fan of the wheels in that size...they look like BMW rims, but are just a bit too big.
What I don't like about it is exactly what the others like about it. The eyelids. It's really not my style. The rims are a little too much for my taste. As for the interior, the blue on the sterring wheel is a little much. The rest is good though.
For the headlights, I'd rather see something like the 6. Elongate the existing headlights a little and slim them down a little bit but not too much. It has to be sleek and subtle.
The rims look to big. I'm guessing a lot of people like 18s but I prefer 17s myself. Same style is nice, but I prefer smaller.
Add a stubby antenna (like the S2000 or the newer high-end Mercedes') and now we're talkin)
dre, ill work on another version a little while and post it later. As for the comment about no mazdaspeed products in na, you could imagine it as a mazdaspeed axela body kit that people can buy from japan, like the mazdaspeed body kit for the rx-8. its just my view of what a nice looking 3 could look like, no big deal here.
It looks cool.Only thing it really needs is a new upper grill where the symbol is,and with or without the eyelids i'm not too crazy on the shape of the headlights.
