Hello, just thought I'd post in here and say hi. Just got my MS3 a couple weeks ago but I've had two MZ3s previously. I'm a regular poster on m3f.

Lookin forward to being on here a little more!

Welcome!

Welcome to the site, any mods done/planned?

 

[grazamataz]

thanks!

so far i've only blacked out my emblems, removed side door moldings, added a couple stickers, and put in chrome-amber rear turn signal bulbs.

i've got 6k replacement bulbs for my low beams (GT trim so OEM HID) and a 35w 10k HID kit for my fogs on the way, plus DDE angel eyes. i'm gonna black out the headlight housings as well.

blue caliper paint is waiting in the living room for a nice day.

currently shopping around for wheels...i'm thinking either Rota Torque (hyper black 18x8) or 5zigen zr+520 (hyper gunmetal 18x7.5).

eventually gonna get a TWM ss, Cobb SRI, Cobb AP, dashhawk, rear engine mount, etc.

not sure if i'm gonna do much to the suspension for a while, i am pretty happy with the way it rides.

oh and here's the old MZ3 i traded in for the MS3. i want to get my MS3 basically to this level looks-wise.

thanks guys. i was happy with it but i had been dreaming of a Speed3 since they first came out. when i found a great deal on an 09 GT with 7k miles on it, i had to jump on it. i'm definitely happy with my decision.

my old car was more of a guinea pig anyway...there were tons of little things that needed to be fixed and i didn't feel like it. it's kinda how i learned to do the mods, some of them were far from perfect, but nothing visible in pictures lol.

i'm super pumped to get my MS3 going though...waiting for the warm weather!

wow man, I love those rims on your speed. What mazda are they off of? A 6? What size are they? If you are thinking about selling your rims to get rotas, let me know, I might be interested

 

[grazamataz]

they are CX-7 wheels, 18x7.5

and YES i am trying to sell them to get rotas. i'll be keeping the tires, selling just the wheels.

PM me with an offer if you are serious, i can ship too (though i'll ask you pay shipping).

i think i've decided on Rota Torques in bronze...they look so sick on black.

I saw those rims, and was wondering if i missed something with the 09's for a second. They dont look too bad. Wouldnt mind having a set for tack days. Welcome to the forum !!

Glad to have you and your beautiful car! Welcome!
