I like it; I like the brown too; not many people go with a brown accents in the inside, with black it looks clean.

It's funny how your car went from lots of stickers to clean, for a lot of people it usually goes the other way around haha.

Needs window tint!

I'm also curious how it would look if you blacked out the two middle arms on the upper grill similar to how mine is to give it that semi open mouth look.

Clean build Cheyenne!
I still say rip the side door molds off though

 

.

Thank you I actually removed them today! No pictures yet.

 

haha! Win; that's literally the first thing most 3 owners make others do is pull them off, that's pretty funny.

Just take a clay bar and some wax to the area after you get them off and you shouldn't see any marks after a day or two.

It looks much better without them!

OEM skirts would be a good addon, I keep forgetting 2.0s don't get them, and it looks kind of weird.
Along with the "Mazdaspeed" skirt addons for the side, you can get those reproduced and cheap on ebay, that will make the car look a bit lower on the sides. (I believe BaysonR sells them on ebay)

I'm not sure what front lips you can run though with that front bumper.

 

Digging the car, and those door panels are pimp.

 

damn car looks hell of a lot better all cleaned up. have any more pics of the interior i like those doors.

 

I dig the rims. Never been a huge fan of the camber, but still really clean car. Keep up the mods.

 

Like it so far

 

This is one hot looking sedan. Much respect. Don't forget to plastidip your front emblem too!

 

Love what you did with your 3. I would never have though brown would look good on the interior, but in that picture it looks super classy. Keep up the good work!

Do you have a fix-it ticket for the lowz or do you just need to pay?

Btw if you haven't fixed the smoke smell yet, that IS fixable. I think you can pay a pro to ozone your interior for <100$s... which in my opinion would be totally worth it, smokey smelling cars are not nice to drive.

 

If you can't find the ozone process, there are some 4-5 part sprayable chemical methods I've seen out there.

 

Subbing for moar rubbin

 

This is the Kenstyle body kit; most people just end up with the front lip though for the sedan for that front end style... I wonder if it would be too much.
You'll definitely need at least the OEM side skirts.

I just don't know what most people end up with. There's another lip that looks just like this except it isn't as crazy on the nose. It's what Kevin Ehm has/had on his car along with another extra lip below it probably for some subaru or something.

Along with OEM skirts, and mazdaspeed brand skirt lips and ZG flares.

 

Nice work so far.

Though, I want to say the rear camber is unnecessary. You could give it positive camber and you would be more "fitted."

 

Im loving those rims. I am going for the same lowered look. Maybe not as much camber as yours but close to it.

 

I didn't know you could get a ticket for having too much camber, and being too low... That is stupid.

 

I dont waste my time doing fix it tickets when doing traffic stops. Its just to much paperwork and half of the time its something silly. Window tint to dark, exhaust to loud, lights are the wrong colors. the list goes on and on, camber and ride height to.. forget it I don't want to get on my knees to measure an exhaust pipe, or the ride height. If its dangerously low, you'll find that out when your on the side of the road with a blown tire. Generally speaking if the driver is perfectly friendly and complies i normally handout warnings.

 

How do the cops (that are after the smallest things, thank god you are not) give a ticket for too much camber though? It sounds too subjective, I feel like there can't be a reliable way of determining too much camber on the spot. Unless there is a way a cop can measure on the side of the road. But the camber reading will change depending on what is the trunk, back seat etc etc...

 

In Ocean city the cops got gauges they put up on the cars on the road that are accurate enough.

It's too dangerous, and it is.

They started doing it last year during H20 show, where a lot of cars were impounded.

It's... completely legal if you ask me.

 

It's only legal if some law or code is being broken, otherwise its police harassment. Years ago, I had a cop give me crap about not having a rear view mirror mounted to the windshield of my Miata. The car was so small, and I'm so tall, that it was bothering me sitting in my line of sight, so I removed it.

A cop pulled me over, had nothing to really get me on, and latched on to the missing mirror (both side mirrors were present.) I calmly told him he was wrong, and that no vehicle code in the state of Louisiana required me to comply with what he was ordering me to do. When he called me a smartass and asked how I knew, I slowly and calmly reached to my passenger seat, and picked up the Louisiana Motor Vehicle Code Book for that year. I was a Criminal Justice major.

He dropped it and told me to love along when I said "Go ahead and write the ticket, just be sure to quote the reg I broke so I'll have an easier time making you look like a jackass in court."
