well hey guys, im a newbie here. i de like to start modding out my mx-3 and i was lookin at some body kits. i have found that i like the fx conbat full body kits the best, however i have definatly seen some other sweet ones. so i was wondering what full body kits that you guys would recomend that are relatively inexpensive (under 600) if you guys could tell me what you had, where to get it, and even post some pics of them, that would be awesome. thanks a lot guys, i hope to learn alot about my mx3 on this site

Yeah im wit Mitmaks on that one. Once again I will say the drift bumper hangs lower than the rest of the kit and it looks funky. Do a search on cardomain to check out some mx-3's with kit on em, and if you want a decent kit check out http://www.cheapkitsdirect.com I swear these guys should just give me a free body kit for reccomending them so many times!

Look up the BC2 bodykit. It looks pretty damn great on the MX3.
Also, you might like the Mazdaspeed Bodykit as well.

ok guys, im trying to look for a front bumper that isnt too flashy. i want to try and find one without a lip, but will give me some style, any ideas?

and one more thing, what kind of rear bumper is this? i love it

rear bumper looks Onderground to me...front and sides are fx...
maybe try protege5 bumper for mx3...or mazdaspeed just look around body kits and theres every style listed already

That back bumper would look much better if the gaps (where the exhaust goes) wasnt so wide.
It was made for 2 exhaust pipes to reach out on each side just incase you were curious

you could have oval tips that are about the same width and hieght as the gaps, it'd look a lot better than four pipes i think, but that's just me.

so how would this sound?

mazdaspeed front bumper
fx combat side skirts
onderground rear bumper
hood scoop
GTR or combat rear wing

does anyone have this setup or can anyone photoshoip this setup?

would they all line up with each other?

sounds cool, but i'm pretty sure the ms front will be way higher than the fx sides

see thats what im afraid of. i wanted everything lineup good, or at least close. how far off do you think it would be from the sideskirts?

93SOHC · Post by **93SOHC** » January 23rd, 2005, 3:14 pm

I think its at least 3 inches higher than the fx sides. Someone correct me if i'm wrong. I think there was another thread about this and someone mentioned the MS front is actually a little higher than the stock bumper. If yer gonna put on extreme sides like that you'll need to get a pretty extreme front like the bc2 or combat

ya the height difference is all too noticeable between the front and the sides with the MS.

I dont think that sounds good because the fx combat sideskirts dont go well with the front bumper
If you look at the very bottom of the front bumper and the sideskirts you will see why because the sideskirts have that "swirgly" kind of thing on the bottom.
As for the onderground rear bumper, I was thinking about this but I think the rear bumper from onderground is lower than the Mazda Speed front bumper. Try e-mailing them and ask them how much in length it is.
