What's your favorite modification on your mazda 3? What yielded the best results?

Angel Eyes, nothing else looks anywhere near as good.

When I had one, it was the sound system I installed. DRAMATIC difference to say the least.

Favorite mod would have to be my Forge BPV, love the sound. Best mod performance wise has been my Cobb SRI.

Those angel eyes are SICK! Wish my car had projector headlights stock. Oh well. Just have to save for a MS3 then. lol

But, from what I've been reading, i think the Cobb is the best bang for the buck mod

On my speed 3, I would say the CPE CAI. More power.

Yeah they're MSP rims. They were painted a darker grey and I painted the center caps black, including over the emblems. Heres another picture.

No wai. I was just being a wiener.


My favorite looks mod is my rear spoiler lip. It's subtle but adds a bit of aggression I think the car needs.

My favorite performance mod is either the CAI (because it was my first mod and I noticed a huge improvement) or the CP-E standback. The Standback was the most noticeable. It catapults the car into a different league IMO.
I've had other chipped turbo cars. This one was a real wake up.

On the MS3 that rear lip does look really good. It's a nice look stock, and that little bit does so much.

so how did you get the angel eyes to turn on without everything else?

Switch. The spot in the fuse box used for the old independent fog mod runs into the cabin, goes to a switch, then runs out to the angel eye ballasts.

Either my Simota CAI or the upgraded shifter bushings I put in last week. Both have really make a difference in the car.

IMO, the shifter bushings and CS motor mount inserts, huge difference for me.
