Very nice, what spring are you running and where did you get those side skirts from?

Nice looking 5 that you got amssprinter. You need to drop the front or bring up the back. Are you on spring or coilovers ?
Are those RPF1 ? They look nice.

Thanks! I'm just running Eibach Sportline springs for a Mazda3. The sideskirts are from Bayson R.

Yeah, Ive been meaning to drop the front a tad but I haven't had the time (or money) to do it right. I guess all of the extra weight is in the back as I'm using Eibach springs for a Mazda3. The RPF1s came off my previous car; an S2000 that I had to trade in. Can't carry a baby in an S2000.
Thanks!

That's a very nice and clean looking ride you got there amssprinter! Do you have the BaysonR VIP spoiler too (hard to tell)? If so, BaysonR need to pay you for a good looking example of their kit, like a moving advertisement of their catalogue.
Regarding the springs, did they come from a Mazda3 or Mazdaspeed3 (hatch)? I have heard that the standard Mazda3 springs will sag in the rear b/c of the weight difference but the hatch has a few hundred pounds more and is not as far off. I am debating if I should try Mazdaspeed3 H&R springs (can get used for cheap) but don’t want the sag…

if you dont want the sag get the mazda3 road magnet springs for the rear...they have a much higher spring rate than others with a decent drop (1.25" and 1.75" for the mazda3)
for reference:
MAZDA Speed 3 - 1.1" drop
Spring Rate Front 365 Rear 340
MAZDA 3s / 3i - 1.75" drop
Spring Rate Front 310 Rear 360
MAZDA 3s / 3i - 1.25" drop
Spring Rate Front 310 Rear 360

Thanks. I wish it was the ocean. In a way, this place was an ice lake thousands of years ago.

Thanks! I don't have the Bayson R Spoiler. My wife got me the rear spoiler and I have no idea who makes it. But it's about have the size of the Bayson R one. I would suggest using springs for a Mazdaspeed3. My car is pretty low and it makes it a little hard to drive over speed bumps, steep driveways, and rough roads. But it's the height I had anticipated and is why I went with this set up. I've been running it this way for about a year now and the height hasn't changed. The car sits level according to the frame height. It's a little deceiving because the front fenders arch a little higher than the back ones.

Would greatly appreciate it if you can investigate this for us. She must have bought it from somewhere. I am dying to get a nice looking spoiler and the Bayson R VIP spoiler REQUIRES the stock Touring/Grand Touring spoiler, which my Sport does not have. The one you have is the best one I’ve seen so far. Thanks!
