Here are some pics of my car. I recently got it back from the body shop. It has a GS front lip, Full OEM sides (urethane, rare part) and pakfeifer rear. I have also installed custom LED taillights which I made. I molded in truck LED's into a stock housing. The hood has also been modified to give the car a more aggressive look.

Thanks guys. The rims are 16 inch Eagle Alloys. They look pretty similar if not the same as yours 93_MX3 GS. If they are the same, good call lol.

Thanks again guys. The sides were mounted using a very expensive glue and whole bunch of screws. My buddy who painted the car mounted everything too. I didn't use the stock brackets that came with the sides in the box.

PS: I bought the sides off a guy on these forums. He was part of a group buy way way back in the day through Oscar who found a bunch of them in a mazda storage facility somewhere in Texas I think. You probably won't find them again unless they are the fiberglass copies.

Is that House of Kolors Tangelo?
Or is it the Lambo pearl ?


Looks good whatever it is ?
I was thinking about using those 2 colors before painting mine Kandy Tangerine ,
But I like how yours turned out , very sleek , has nice body lines with your choice of this kit , Overall Good job :2thumbsup:

Thanks! It's actually called "grabber orange" and the colour is from the 2007 mustang GT. My GF has a pic of my car beside a 2007 mustang gt. I'll post it when she sends it to me.

Car looks good man..I like the color, you ndon't see it often. I love that hood too, i've always wanted to do that. Saw it at MOTM. Tails look great at night, are fairly bright as well. Keep it up man!
