Hey everyone, I'm new to this site and have had my mazda 3 for about a week now, already a substantial ammount of mods to it though. Following pictures go along a timeline from Stock to Today :) Enjoy!

Brought her home first day from the dealers, all stock! (Thankfully got the premium package touring edition, so already at an advantage!)

First mod, within the second day, painted the calipers red, and the rotors black (high heat caliper paint both colours from canadian tire!)

Ah, the HID's are installed, long ass installation (5 hours) had to make an entirely new wiring system, and fuse all together since the 2006 was such a hard ass design to install these into, and it has a specific socket clipper that only halogen bulbs can clip onto, so instead I improvised using newspaper and rubber to seal it, and than the rubber socket cover (the inside of the engine bay). They turned out rather sexy I think... =)

And the most recent modification, the new Chrome LED Flicker Rearview mirrors! Just installed them today, and they look pretty sick. I disabled the lower fender flickers cause than I thought it'd be too much of a light show when I'm turning...
And that's that :)
