What have you done to your MS3 today?

Finally received and installed my AWR 70 durometer rear motor mount -- combined with the TMW bushings, changing gears feels much better. I haven't had a chance to go out and really test it, but so far I'm pleased.

Is the AWR mount you installed the newer design with the thicker bushings? It's so much bigger than the first version that one dude said he couldn't install it. Was a reason why I passed on it.
 
Well, not today, but Tuesday, I used my ms3 to bring home a very important new toy - 40" LCD TV! The guy at the store said there was no way it was fitting in a mazda 3, man was he wrong! It's great to have a car thats both useful and fun to drive...

I would guess so -- the bushing on that thing is HUGE compared to the stocker. It took a lot of persuasion to get that thing in there, but it did go. That would explain why it was more difficult then what I was expecting based on others posts.
 
I will be installing a K&N drop-in air filter while waiting for my Cobb SRI to never arrive. Will the K&N give me at least a little stock BOV sound?
 
emblems are back on...steelies and blizzaks arrived.

Had 20% tint instaled all around, including a glare strip, on Friday. Received my red LED's for the interior over the weekend, but ran short of time. Will install those soon. Also received my shifter plate bushings over the weekend, and will get that done soon.

Finally strapped tires/TPMS on a set of RX-8 wheels. Had them just taking up valuable storage space for two months.
