weaselnoze's 2007 Mazda 3 Picture Thread - UPDATE 3-17-08

Here is my pathetic attempt at building a nice daily driver. I went with white because everyone knows that a white car means that money is no object to the owner . I also went with the GT because we all know that when buying a car, if you settle for less than you will regret it for the entire length of ownership. I didnt want to settle for anything less than full heated leather interior, navigation, premium sound package, OEM HID's, DSC and TCS, LED tail lights etc. I'm about to be on my second set of tires after only 8500 miles so I'm guessing that i get my money's worth out of the car.

MOD LIST:

Performance:

-Eibach ProKit Springs
-Mazdaspeed CAI
-Mazdaspeed Short Throw Shifter
-Mazdaspeed camber links

Exterior:
-17" Racing Hart MSP wheels powdercoated GOLD
-removed side moldings
-cx-7 antenna
-removed reflector from headlights
-chrome turn signal bulbs
-yellow Nokya fog light bulbs
-Lamin-x yellow fog light tint
-smoked reflectors
-removed 2.3 and 3 emblems

Interior:
-subtle blue underdash lights to match Mazda's indirect interior lighting
-white LED map lights


I will add more pics when i get time:



















before the wheels

04-06 i Models have a honey comb grill with black mustache
04-06 s Models have a 3 barred sport grille
07-08 i Models have a honey comb grill with chrome mustache
07-08 s Models have a 2 barred sport grille (thats what mine is)

there are different aftermarket grilles like open mouth and emblemless, none of which are available for my year and trim level. unfortunately they made the grille and bumper one piece. assholes.

Your first pick is amazing, really makes the car look like just a plain old 3.
