The MS side skirts... actually look good on your car I always hated those skirts... I've never seen them on a car with minty black paint!

I might add that it's funny you and I are both driving cars with mismatched tires right now I get my new set tomorrow or the next day, if all goes well. Buying online means waiting Other than that, it's great! I want my tires!!!

Great looking car.

I even like the hood scoop... I wouldn't mind having a low profile one that looked stock... I need to look into this.

Overall, looks great

Thank you ethand i thought you left the mx-3 community i haven't seen you one here for awhile but no it really fits weird at the corners you cant really see it unless your right up on it like the pics, but its from another car so im pleased it fits that well . Yeah i plan on having it molded over to hide the gap but that might be last on my body list i want to first clean up all the rust then before i get it repainted then ill do the lip.

Thanks bro! yeah no lie it took me awhile to get used to them. The only reason i went the touring kit route was because i was looking for skirts online one day, when i saw these on ebay for 40 bucks!! I bid on them 41 thinking i wouldnt win and boom i became a proud owner of an official mazdaspeed item. Then i ended up getting the whole kit.

Online omg i hate being overseas and having to buy EVERYTHING online. Sometimes i pay more for shipping then the actual item but yeah my one tire got a nail in it somehow when all the tires were only 2 months old. So i went to the local auto parts store and tried to get the same brand but they quoted me at 200 bucks for one tire!!!!! So i asked whats the cheapest you have and they gave me this mighty cooper starfire tire ill get all four the same when its that time.

yeah i have plans of molding it to the hood and actually cutting a hole so its functional so cool air can travel from the top onto the engine bay. The one on my mx-6 is actually cut and wow the engine is ALWAYS cool

$41 is a good price, was that shipped?

$200 a tire? No thanks!! I would've passed too, wow.

Well good job on the build, keep it up

shipping was 20 dollars more i think....there not that heavy but that beats what people sell replicas for and yeah that was the price of one tire and thanks for he props.

Haha yeah, I got real busy with Uni, family stuff, etc. & just had no time to come on here... When I logged on it said my last log in was late December!
Also, I hadn't done much to my car, so wasn't compelled to post up about it haha!!
And 200/tire is pretty normal in Australia!! I paid 175/tire for mine, and they're pretty average tires... But we pay more for everything here, so we're used to it. If it weren't for the 60% tax on importing cars privately, nobody would buy cars here!!! We pay about 20% more for brand new cars than the US! (E.g. Base model Toyota Corolla here is $25k, plus on road costs...)

december...wow and yeah germany is kind of like that too and they pay in euro which is way more then the dollar thats why i cant wait to leave here. Dont get me wrong its a nice country to visit but DONT LIVE HERE. I should know i have been over here for 5 years now.

Hahaha I'm not unhappy with living in Australia - it's actually a fantastic place to live, but things are expensive. However, for the most part, wages are relative to the cost of living, which just means it's really cheap for us to travel in places like the US, Europe, UK, etc. at the moment... Once we've paid $3k to fly there, that is! because Australia's so far away from everywhere, travelling to any other country is expensive (except Indonesia), and (because we're a frikin massive island) must be done by plane (or boat... if you have that much time to spare haha)...

ah ha i see

Happy Birthday.

^ thanks brother, and also i havent been on here in a hot minute but i have some mazdaspeed MS-01 rims coming in the mail....i just hope they get here soon!!!!

you got the mx-3 ones?

yes yes and oh yes...ii have the MS-01's not the MS-01R's...im just waiting for rupe to send them to me...but when i get them ill have to polish them a bit and get tires for them since they will be my winters..but the funny thing after i bought the MS-01's they had MS-01S's in 4 lug and i want those instead but whatever....

Just a small update i FINALLY got my MS-01's for my mazdaspeed MX-3 and lately my mx-6 has been acting like crap so i been dumping LITERALLY thousands of dollars to keep her on the road so the 3 hasn't got as much love as it normally does. All i have to do is polish the lip real good and get tires and center caps. By the time i get tires for them (winter tires) i should have center caps...

Nice MX-3 Few notes though - chromed rims does not look good at all on MX-3. You need some serious drop, because it looks like a carriage, and for the spoiler - too big really, stick with the stock, simple spoiler. Looks really nice and gives the MX-3 it's needed sleek look
