cwp mazdaspeed3 / work rezax rebuild

[sixspeedthree]

so a while back i posted an intro thread but funds have been tight so i never got to do much with the car. all of my recent mods have been fairly low cost to free. the most expensive were the bike rack trays.






original photoshop i did to see how it would look...



roof rack and bike trays added...



boost gauge reinstall/customizing . the silverface, white edge lit autometer gauge doesnt match my oem gauges worth a damn. sooo, since the boost line broke behind the gauge i took it out, ordered new line and a red led bulb. then i took apart the boost gauge to make the face and needle different...








DDM 4500k hids and DDM yellow fog bulbs...



wheel painting supplies...







from when i did the test fit:





comments and questions welcome!

Duuuuuuuuuuuuuude your car is sick.

And I can always appreciate someone who puts in work themselves, not just the ballers who pay $1000 to have their rims refinished and painted. DIY is awesome!

Keep up the work man, Ill be posting a thread of my buildup soon also :]

Wheel spec? What suspension?

[sixspeedthree]

Oh sorry the wheels specs:

Work rezax
17x8/9 staggered, +36 offset all around.


I'm on Stock ms3 suspension for now, I'm going to get k-sport kontrol coils soon.


Here's a pic of the wheel in the sunlight:
