Yay Paint!

finally had time to get the car painted
i swapped out my rear bumper to something a bit less aggressive..
then had the bumpers done diamond white to match and had the whole car re-clear coated
here are some teaser pics
i do have a digital camera now too but was too lazy to pull it out
ill take some pics tomorrow afternoon when ill be able to take it for a spin :)

also, shaved the intake hole on the bumper so i could add the "M"blem later

it might just be the drinks.. but it seems to have an s2000 feel to it. I like it so far.

Wow!! Way way way way way way way better than the original pics!

I wasn't really sure where you were going with that, with the way it cut off before the wheel wells and looked like crap. But nice job now!!

Come do one for me...

Drool...

I've never seen a painted interior on an Mx-3 that looked good, until now. Nice work on the white hatch plastics! (Mind you it may be a different story close up...)

IMHO get some GS 5-spoke wheels and you're stylin.

actually im looking at some gun metal motegi FF7's :)
might not happen till next year tho..its getting kinda late in the summer
plus i got some suspension issues i rather deal with
hmm might be nice to roll into school with a new set of wheels though.. well see :)

yeh the interior is gonna go back to stock black minus the white italian leather accents haha but thanks! :D
also, im gonna be adding a resonator and silencer to the exhaust and angling it upwards to match the body kit styling

That's looking great! I still think, in my humble opinion, that you should get 16" or 17" rims to fill that space.
Nice job :2thumbsup:

Very nice job on that front bumper! Are you going to fill the holes up front and back?

Very nice work. I like how stock it looks. It looks like it belongs...if you get my meaning. I agree with others...the look would be finished nicely with 16"s and some fogs.

I can't believe I've never seen you around.

Holy crap that looks good! When I first saw this post I thought it looked terrible.. and I was thinking "it just.. doesn't fit"

but i was WAY wrong. I'm really loving it now.

Impressive job man! It is beautiful! (even with the white which i despise)
