First off, download and install Mozilla and stop using Internet Explorer. Mozilla has a spell check and it looks like you need it (so do I)
Cruise the site and Google body kits but for most here I think the Mazda Speed one tops the bill. Cheers

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Re: (((dont know what bodykit i should get for my mx3))
Everyone will tell you that 90% of them are ugly and should be avoided... I would always suggest engine mods before body mods, because I don't want to be that douche with a 130hp motor and a $3000 body kit.
Now with Moderator power!

Re: (((dont know what bodykit i should get for my mx3))
Don't get a body kit for the sake of getting a body kit to be cool.
Get a body kit:
1) Cause you like the look of the kit
2) You think it enhances the look and style of the car
3) It reflects yourself and your style in the car
You should know what kit you want when you see it, not by doing what others suggest

Post some pics of your car... also instead of getting a body kit lots of people will enhance the look of their MX-3 by getting a variety of OEM Mazda Body Parts: GS front lip (see For Sale section), OEM side skirts (full length are rare but sometimes available and Euro mini sides pop up here and there), and OEM Rear Mud Flaps are available as well. You see - Mazda already thought of ways to make the MX-3 look great!

Re: (((dont know what bodykit i should get for my mx3))
Yah your car probably isn't in that good of shape. I would first suggest spending the money making the car look good stock. Body kits are lame sauce. If you are using it as a daily driver it's just going to get wrecked.

Re: (((dont know what bodykit i should get for my mx3))
I don't see why you need the gs lip. The stupid thing is just in line to get wailed by everything. But don't do a body kit just because others think it looks good. I will gladly tell The guy with the nostril hood that its a nostril hood but he likes it so he can have it. and i wont judge him for itJovian2k wrote:Post some pics of your car... also instead of getting a body kit lots of people will enhance the look of their MX-3 by getting a variety of OEM Mazda Body Parts: GS front lip (see For Sale section), OEM side skirts (full length are rare but sometimes available and Euro mini sides pop up here and there), and OEM Rear Mud Flaps are available as well.

Re: (((dont know what bodykit i should get for my mx3))
Nobody needs it necessarily, but the urethane GS Lip is by far more durable than a fiberglass bodykit and is a nice alternative for a guy who said he's looking for a body kit. With careful driving/parking it can last, mine has.Dragon1212 wrote: I don't see why you need the gs lip. The stupid thing is just in line to get wailed by everything.

Re: (((dont know what bodykit i should get for my mx3))
You are aware that it is a two-piece Lip, there should be a clean separation ("break" if you will) in the middle with the overlap that covers it... this is normalDragon1212 wrote: lol my sisters lasted a week. it broke clean in half in the middle. luckly the plastic overlap covers it.

Re: (((dont know what bodykit i should get for my mx3))
No one will give opinions onbody kits, but they'll give plenty on stock body parts
People are obsessed with the stock/clean look, but don't let that discourage you from doing what you want. No matter if it's OEM or aftermarket, what ever you do, do it because that's what you want.
I did what I wanted on mine, not everyone agreed (ie: rear wing, mudguards, even the CF invader hood) and did alot of totally different things, but in the end, I was proud of my car, and loved the way she looked and stood out. I still miss her to this day, but I don't regret moving on...I had to do what I had to do.

Re: (((dont know what bodykit i should get for my mx3))
the point is that its your car so you need to make that decision for yourself
if your going to get a body kit ask about duraflex i hear its good at surviving the daily abuses of the road

Re: (((dont know what bodykit i should get for my mx3))
I don't think there's too many Duraflex kits out for the Mx-3. New technology that came in as the Mx-3's aftermarket started to fade out. You'll be pretty much stuck with Fibreglass unless your stay with OEM/JDM bumpers
