Love the look, especially the red tails!
looks really good! have you thought about cutting a circle out for the reverse lights?
Thanks guys :) I've been thinking about a couple of solutions for the reverse lights. I was leaning towards white LED's in the rear reflectors, but thought that might look tacky. I don't want to cut the lamin-x before I'm sure about it.
Finally spotted a local while driving my 3 lol!
Your cars a jaw dropper now man wow. :( I felt ashamed hahaha.
Haha thanks man, you didn't get up close though. The 2-sided tape on my lip let go because of the heat and my it was just kind of hanging off the passenger side! Looked so ghetto, I thought it was gonna fly off. I'm lucky I made it home to slam 10 screws in it, lol.
Your car looks good too, man! Don't see too many 3's in that colour :)
haha its all good. I didnt have my glasses on so it looked mint. :chuckle and you didnt see the bits of plastidip everywhere on my car. Even a few strings of it on my whipers. May have also noticed, NO SPOILER. Almost lost it at kies but I kept my cool. Wait two weeks to hear the same thing again about templates. They are going to try and find a template. These dealerships are full of nincompoops.
What?! They did mine at kieswetter without a template :locoQuote:

They said they would try and find a temp and call me. but that was monday.. So I guess I keep looking.
Not impressed with every Mazda dealership in the region now.
Thanks man :) wasn't sure how this style of lip would look with the old BBS but I'm happy. I'm gonna have to stop eventually, lol. I'm really trying to be done for the summer, save for one more that's in the mail.Quote:

The plan for now is to keep the GT and maybe next summer add a CF lip to it. If I do decide to change it up, I'd likely go with the Autoexe rear wing.Quote:

There is no doubt in my mind that this is what I WANT to do to my rims... I just can't decide if this look will work well with 17's. I also plan to drop lower (sportlines at least) if that makes any difference.
Thoughts?
I know I'll regret this... but I was also considering these options:

Do er up. Will look great! Even the red could work with your tail lights. I'm not feeling the teal as much though, maybe cause it looks strange on that red civic lol.
IMO
im liking the red. you could rock the white and red theme!!!
red white lip?
yeah maybe... I don't want to have a "canada flag" theme though. I already have red calipers and tails... I think the red faces might be overkillQuote:

That teal is KILLER!!
Teal Ftw.
I thought about the black face white lip thing for awhile, still quite like it but I think it works best on flap lips with no step
definitely teal
