i dun think they make wide kits for the mx3
wat u can do is buy kit parts wit the same style that fit certain parts of the mx3
alot of research and custom work needs to be done tho
i heard front bumpers from an eclipse, s2000 n civic may be able to work on an mx3 with a bit of custom work.
but u need to find out the measurements of the mx3 and compare to other kits
then once u no wat cars match the measurements or r close enough
u choose kits parts that r similar in style
but who nos u may find a car with the exact measurements that they make wide kits for
some of the Spanish n Brazilian mx3s have em maybe u should find out from them i bet they can give u sum pointers

Never done anything with fibreglass, but here in finland ppl would basically get something that would b nearly close to the shapes or just what looks nice but it into pieces and make it out of fibreglass. Or then ppl often use metal like pieces of a stock vw bug for ex sample. But needs a lot off work. Or then just take everything off and use urethane to make models out of the stock pieces and then make them wider to do a rps chargespeed style one.
U can also just make models out off urethane, but most ppl say it's easier with a model than makin it your self from scratch.
U'll need a lot of time, some money and imaginary. And off course sandpaper.

But i'm sure u know all this so i guess it wouldn't b too difficult if u'r patient enough and really want to do it.
