Was offered a faeture by redline, and had profesional photographers taking pics of it all day!

Im happy to say the least!

Thats color is.. um... *cough*.. unique...

I like what you've done with the hood. And I actually sortof like the bumper. Did they fill in the little minigrill up top or did it come that way?

i also like it

the colour is unique and thats what it needs

what did redline tell you it needed? tv, install, interior etc? did you speak to davy?

The paint really does have to be seen in the flesh to appreciate it. I cant stand the colour it looks in the pics, but in real life it really does look much better!

When the sun hits it, it goes a real light green!

Yeah i spoke to dave. He said to give him a ring once it is lowered, but im waiting until its completly finished and the air bags are on it!

Quick list of the most major mods.....

de-handled
small grill in front valance smoothed
side repeaters smoothed from front valance
de-aeriald
de-badged
extended bonnet
washer jets smoothed
rpi splitter blended in rear valance
molds taken from skirts, and blended into rear valance

lol, i was just about to post you have a lack of front indicators and a set of lights missing.

colour looks awsome mate, i was bit worried you were sticking to the 2 tone scheme but the finished project is smooth, clean, and spot on.
Shame you have to put damm registration plate onto your nice front end

If you dont mind me asking mate how much did all the body shop work cost not including parts ?? pm me if you dont want to post.

anyhow cant wait to see it this weekend at japfest, shame we cant get all 3 of the mx-3 together on one stand, maybe next year.

Blimey Rsroadkilla! That really looks awesome! Good work!
There is something about the front your MX-3 - kinda menacing, aggressive - but not lethal - reminds me of a "Cylon" from the Battlestar Galactica TV series currently airing on Sky One, Tuesdays, 9pm.
Heck, the whole car wouldn't look out of place flying through space!

Love the colour, and the existing alloys seem to complement work done.
Are you sure you want to go for Black Alloys?
On second thoughts, it's your Ship, you're the boss and crucially, you can already visualise what you want - Nice one.

It's the Dogs <Bleeeeep>!

Love it!!

Wow! I've never been a fan of that style kit, or chrome rims on a MX-3.....but because of the paint, the "grill' you added to the front bumper and the way you have the hood modded to now cover up a good portion of the headlamps......I must admit that, that MX of yours is one of the nicest I've ever seen! CONGRATS!

I look foward to seeing her dropped and I hope we'll be seeing your MX in a few mags.
