does MGM have greenish tint to it?
I keep seeing 08.5 Speed 3 in front of MoT with beautiful shiny dark MS3 rims.
The color is very hard to describe.. First I thought it was cosmic blue but it was too dark and greyish...
It looks like Black Mica + Cosmic Blue..

welcome to TM3

[IrishmanM3]

I have a problem...

front lip, side skirts, rear lip, rear wing, jdm head lights, side markers, sti fog light covers, grill side pieces, OZ p1 b22 rims, willwood 4 pot fronts 2 pot rear breaks with bigger rotors, lowerd springs, strut tower bars front and back, pully kit, ground kit, colder sparkplugs and neetronics tuning, short ram intake with heat box, samco air inlet hose, down pipe + full scooby sport exhaust from briton, door sill trims, shifter trim, short shifter, 3 gauges in custom carbonfiber center pod, 2 gauges on wheel bevel, shift knob, dead pedal, and I think thats it... possibly more but thats all I can remember of her off the bat (I lost my mod list on old computer)

With that being said the car was fine bone stock, I got out of controll :) Driving a pathfinder for 2 1/2 years has crushed my soul. This car is giving me hope for comuter/daily driver and fun to mod and go to meets with etc. I think the m3 hatch will do me well, I have already orderd my first parts for it and will keep reading these boards to see what I can get away with when the wife is not lookng.

Thanx to all for the welcome and for having this awsome comunity
in retrospect, I should have bought the speed3 and just dealt with premium again ;)
