My car is black
Still not sure if I should go with Dark Midnight Blue or Black with a blue pearl (it will look sort of blue during the day, black at night)

black with blue pear with be pimp! You can mix it with diff combinations. I saw at the track that color. Seen yellow with red pearl.. i know.. they look funy and cool
try chameleon in stead of pearl and BAM. Mines blue with pink chameleon and people sometimes think its blue, others purple.

Hey Custommx3, do you have any other pics of your MX3?
Like say from the back?
I am 65% for white
30% for red
5% for black
Looks like white might win
The cool thing that I like about white is I can paint some of my interior parts white to match. It would look ugle if I tried to paint those parts red

I think I am going to go with white. Still considering staying with black though. Then later on I am going to make my own custom projectors
They will look like the Honda Civic projectors except they will match the color of the car and they will be made to fit in the MX3.
Main reason why I want to stay wth black or go white
THE INTERIOR

Anyway,
![Image](http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y273/Total_Package2/Sept10MX3001.jpg)
No more Mazda logo. Lets face it, the old logo looks very lame

Ok guys, this week I got NOTHING done to my car
Bad weather, class set backs have prevented me on doing anything
Anyway, I ordered some headers for about $200 (including shipping) from Ebay and...
![Image](http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b194/Total_Sabotage/Exhaust.jpg)
And here is the link to the company who sold me the Exhaust
http://search.stores.ebay.com/425450-PE ... ameZRC0024
Resonator and probably a FlowMaster muffler and I will be set

If in Utah, lame means the most bad a$s looking emblem for a car company ever ..... then yes. If you mean lame like the rest of the country uses the word lame ...... then I think the thin mountain air is getting to you.Juans_93_MX3 wrote: No more Mazda logo.

And a car without badges looks like generic cereal at the discount market. I'm putting all my badges back on when I'm done painting the car.

I've a;ways appreciated Graphite Gray Metallic Pearl!
It's off of the Lexus IS300. Have the body shop spray a darker primer on and you're set!
