Widebody Mazdaspeed 3

[Flavourless]

Here is another build we just finished up at work (JMI Motoring). Here is a little bit of what was done to the kit. From what we know it is the second kit ever fitted to a Mazda 3 and the first to a MazdaSpeed 3.

The Front fenders and rear quarters were cut and modified to accept the larger wheels and to eliminate any rubbing. The flares were re-glassed to perfectly match the body of the car and foam was added between the flare and body after paint. Side skirts were cut and re-glassed along the rocker under the door so that it fit perfectly. The front lip was modified and reglassed to fit perfectly with the stock bumper and look as oem as possible.

All the mounting points were riv-nutted and tamper-proof bolts were used so no one could just unbolt the flares and steal them if they wanted to. Enjoy

[Reichy]

nice, i actually really like it.
good work mate but i know i dont need to tell ya that

[psiglx]

not my style but i actually like it

the mazdaspeed3 is a quick little car

[Dr.AK]

The body looks awesome.

However, it needs more low + more poke to fill out those arches.

Very nice work!

+1 on more low & more poke.

[Flavourless]

As much as I agree with you guys, if the car was any lower or it had any wider wheels and they came in contact with the flares buh buy flares :( Its a girls daily driver so it works out well :)

[tivs31]

It actually looks like a girls DD :rofl

[OSSHWA]

Very nice, but like others said, those wheels need to come out a bit more.

[EMU]

wow love the transformation

[Ollie]

Wow that's way sicker than I though it'd be. I really like it a lot. It would be insane with more poke, more low, and stretchy tires though!

[SeanDub]

Work looks good, however I don't like the widebody.

[kamberkid]

thats pretty sick. mazdaspeed3's haul ass.

[1985zcar]

The kit's kinda cheesy in my opinion, but like others have said, Speed3s are dooooope. We had one at my work for a while and I took it for a spin once. Good times.

[Stolzy]

itd look sick dropd with camber and no widebody. just pull the fenders.

or mold the widebody???

[Flavourless]

kit looks funny molded and this is what the customer wanted and they were stoked when they came to pick it up.

[schroedin]

Wider wheels to fill out teh wheel wells more would be good. I like it though, nice work.

[BADwayz]

**** the car and kit, but good work on the install.

[BreakMyWallet]

i actually like it. looks mean

[michaele30]

Thats go to be one of the nicer Mazda 3s I have seen. Great work!!

[Silverspooler]

I **** that the flares have that deep lip inside of the fender. It prevents more low and more wide. It's cool none the less but this is one of the many reasons I **** body kits and glassfiber....

[hechtspeed]

I dig it as well. Agreed, needs more low and flush. Cool kit though for sure! What'st he wheel tire specs?

[codytheoutlaw]

the mazdaspeed 3's are sweet. i think it looks great.

[RD408]

Work looks good, however I don't like the widebody.

Agree, work looks awesome.
Its a girls daily driver so it works out well :)

Is she hot?
:rofl

[Stolzy]

idk about those fenders. just cheap looking imo

[Oxer]

I dont mind it too much... Great job as usuall though :D

[yurotrash]

Thanks, but no thanks.

[mo diesil]

ya im down with the look. the over flares are cool

[e.shell]

maybe if you mold the flares to their body parts it might look better. just my 2 cents

[WhiteStripes]

Damn, that looks amazing. You guys do amazing work.

[Jamil]

Looks ight but I'm wondering if she chose those fenders, I think it would look better if you used the oem fenders and like pull them out like they do on evos and some 240's.

[mynameisjames1]

How can i get something like this?

[perzbenz]

How can i get something like this?


back from the dead

[AmnKyle@911th]

Hmm. Has that widebody rally car look. I like it. Different wheels and this could be a whole lot better!

[SD202]

car looks great. IMO would look even better if you had those lips polished up and the faces painted. the black wheels with time attack kills the whole look.

[Belvader]

looks good ! really liking the wide body kit

[madulv]

Hi.. I think it look really cool..
A question though..
I come from Denmark, and I to want this kit on my Mazda 3.
Can any one tell me where i can get it? It seems that there are not to many dealers of this item:(
Hope you guys can help me out...

[Nick475]

i like the body a lot. wheels dont do it for me though. drop it down a tad more and get some wide ass wheels :)

[Jlyons617]

Looks like you're at the Port Townsend Airport.

[Itsahyundai]

More low and poke and It'll be AWESOME

[dvious]

I like it for being different, and the work looks good to.

[sawatsky]

Not really feeling the kit. Props for doing something unique though

Edit: lol just realized this thread is like 4 years old...

[CraigSnedeker]

I love it!
