I've never posted on this site. But it has been very useful. So i thought i'd post some pictures up of my car.

I've had her for just over a year, when i bought her i rescued her from a barn where it had sat for 3 years. Only 61k on the clock when i had it and i paid £700, which is about 1400 USD.
All opinions and suggestions welcome. Sorry about the picture quality they were taken with an old film camera and scanned.

Here are some digital pictures of what the paint was like and what it's like now (without a respray of any kind)

And Now....

At the moment i've sent the car 300 miles away to have a suede and leather retrim. So once it's back i'll post up some pictures.

Wow, VERY nice. I love that color with your E-spec appearance. What rims are those? Also, what have you used to lower the car? Get some interior shots, I really like that car. But maybe get rid of the headlight covers, the e-spec lights are sooo nice.

Thanks for the comment. I don't use the headlight covers anymore as they get annoying. They're Team dynamics osaka's. They don't make them any more unfortunatly. She's lowered 40mm on Jamex springs. :)

I looooove the car. I'm trying to get my car to look like yours, the only extra thing i got is an inverted CF hood. The lights look so sexy too. maybe you could use a paint job or a good wax job. goodluck with the car.

I love the look of the head light covers. I can see how they would get annoying after a while having to remove & replace them all the time. I still like the way they look though ;) :2thumbsup: nice ride! With the exception of the rims.. very similar to what my GS will eventually look like. :)

I hate that first pic though
Isnt there a better looking spoiler for our MX3s?
I swear I seen one that was longer. Not big but just longer. The stock spoiler looks way too small

I think you mean the presso style spoiler. I bought the ATH spoiler myself, it looks like the original as well, but it's a little higher and longer.
