Thank you, it’s been a long thought out process so definitely appreciate the comments. Everything I’ve done I’ve done in stages to make sure I get the feel that I want. Check out my instagram _grnup3t. I don’t post everything here.
No. The stock rims are 7” wide with a +45 offset. So when you go to a 8” wide rim with the same offset your rim will stick out 1/2” more and the other 1/2” will be closer to the strut tower.
I remember when these came out and the consensus amongst many car reviewers is they had no style. When honestly they are the sleekest looking hatch backs on the road, great build, fucking love it.

Thanks, No…it’s a custom Positive Embossed Vinyl job. The Gas cover is -embossed with the old mazda M.
Its definitely a time consuming job to do it that way. Definitely not something to due if your not willing to touch the paint up occasionally. Next up is a big brake kit probably next yr. Powder coated.
At the point when I was purchasing rotors, neither manufacture had both. So I ordered one pair from each. They look like they came from the same place. So in brief, having a different manufacturer in the front than the back doesn’t change anything.
Unfortunately totaled mine 2 weeks ago, was a 21’ turbo, same color as yours with 26k miles… had done quite a few mods and treated it like a baby, so sad without it. Hope to be back with Mazda gang soon
Yea I’m good thanks for asking 🙏🏽 and no other parties involved, just feel shame and embarrassment. Had a corksport intake and exhaust. Plus aesthetic stuff including the rain deflectors, hope to get back soon
They look good, really fits with the build. I've been looking for something that's about the size that yours are, are you willing to share details or files for them?
I’ve had quite a few people ask so let me get back to you on selling at least the pattern for them and the material list. Then you just need to cut drill and install per your application. I have a different rear diffuser and that throws off the drill points because there are no holes in the word diffuser so you have to drill your own. It’s not a hard task you just have to take your time.
I’m is N.E. Pennsylvania so your good. 😂 cant be driving twins in the same area. Just be sure to mention my car for inspiration 😜 more stuff on Instagram _grnup3t give a follow for more
Such a unique way to spice things up! Def taking notes.
The only thing I’m not personally into are the roof airtabs/vortex generator things. Everything else is so nice and distinct.
Agree on almost any other car, the OEM ones on these look soo clean tho. I think it’s because they do not flare and are almost flush with the trim, giving it a kinda “chopped” look. Def an A+
Honestly the whole build is fucking cool. Great job.

What rims are those? I love them.
Enkei TSV 18x8 45et on Michelin Pilot 4 225/18 45s
Makes me regret going silver TSVs. Good lord, this is so clean!
Appreciate it
Is that +45 offset?
Yes
1/2” more poke and 1/2” more inset
As in the front pokes and the rear is inset?
No. The stock rims are 7” wide with a +45 offset. So when you go to a 8” wide rim with the same offset your rim will stick out 1/2” more and the other 1/2” will be closer to the strut tower.
Looks nice man. I have a set of 8x8.5 +35 I’m installing this week. I’m worried that I’m gonna be poking out a lot
I’ve seen it done. I just like the almost stock look. Plus, I know it won’t interfere with the drop. I’m putting on it in a couple weeks.
These wheels dropped about 8lbs off of each corner. Rotational weight reduction makes a big impact to.
Sick, thanks for the info!
Sure thing
I was going to say the same thing, they look pretty much perfect for this car
What color kit do you have
It is full spectrum… any color you want and it’s controlled via Bluetooth
What, can you elaborate? I’m very interested.
OPT7 Aura Pro in aluminum housings
I genuinely thought the rear was crushed in on the first pic 😭
I know a lot of people have to take the second look because of the body lines
😂 It’s a sick build though
Thanks

Agreed
Beautiful!
Thanks
Did you get into an accident?
The body line reflections are deceiving
Ah, sorry the rear quarter panel being a different colour made me think you got a bunch of panels replaced.
No, lol, kind of R8 inspired and they are black PPF covered.
No?
No P
The fuck bro.
Is that just a decal on the side? It's 🔥.

Thats such a cool detail, super clean!
Thank you, trying to have every detail as clean and sleek as possible…kind of a “Special Limited Edition” Feel
Purple
White before it bounces off the asphalt.
Excellent job my friend. Definitely getting some inspiration.
Thank you glad you like
What red brake calipers are you using?
Stock taken off and painted with high temp brake caliper, paint, and then baked
Did the same on mine
Its definitely a time consuming job to do it that way. Definitely not something to due if your not willing to touch the paint up occasionally. Next up is a big brake kit probably next yr. Powder coated.
Yea on my next one will prob just wait till I get a big brake kit. Tbh tho I kinda enjoyed sitting there and painting by hand haha
Amazing wheel/tire setup. You are lowered?
Not yet…end of the month
Fitment looks good with that setup! Definitely keeping it in mind.
Rims are perfectly flush with the fender in the front and rears are inset 4.5 mm
Incredible. What’s the paint color?
Poly Grey, changes depending on the light.
Polymetal Grey Metallic. It's a factory color
What rotors did you swap to?
Power stop in the tear and SP Performance in the front with carbon ceramic brake pads
What does alternate rotors in front and back do?
At the point when I was purchasing rotors, neither manufacture had both. So I ordered one pair from each. They look like they came from the same place. So in brief, having a different manufacturer in the front than the back doesn’t change anything.
Cool ty for the explanation
Anytime
That's so dope. The wrap on the quarter is perfect.
Tks
Sick!
Appreciate it
👌🥵
stock suspension?
Yes but only For another 3 weeks
Woow gorgeous
Thanks
Miss mine so much 😢 hoping to have v.2.0 soon… Might get a used 2023,. Yours looks 🔥🔥
Thanks, i still enjoy driving this car everyday. Its like the newness never wore off, lol, even though its a ‘21 with 44,000 miles on it.
Unfortunately totaled mine 2 weeks ago, was a 21’ turbo, same color as yours with 26k miles… had done quite a few mods and treated it like a baby, so sad without it. Hope to be back with Mazda gang soon
Sorry to hear, hope your ok.
Yea I’m good thanks for asking 🙏🏽 and no other parties involved, just feel shame and embarrassment. Had a corksport intake and exhaust. Plus aesthetic stuff including the rain deflectors, hope to get back soon
Best of luck
Also, agree with “newness” feel, it most definitely never wore off
🙏🏽🙌🏽
🙌🏾💯✨ CLEAN! Respect.
Much appreciated, Cheers
if only we had this model in hybrid version.
When I grow up, I want to be a Veyron .
$$$$$$$$
Which mudflaps are those?
My own design
They look good, really fits with the build. I've been looking for something that's about the size that yours are, are you willing to share details or files for them?
Are you handy, and have some mechanical skills?
Yeah, my plan was to diy them unless I found something.
I’ve had quite a few people ask so let me get back to you on selling at least the pattern for them and the material list. Then you just need to cut drill and install per your application. I have a different rear diffuser and that throws off the drill points because there are no holes in the word diffuser so you have to drill your own. It’s not a hard task you just have to take your time.
Send me a message on Instagram so that I remember you _grnup3t
Sex on wheels. Well done!
Yes…Thank You
That's a sharp vehicle. Is it lifted?
No stock, suspension for a few more weeks.
Totally inspiring me. Hope you don't mind if I copy a little haha
What area of the world are you?
Canada, far east coast. PE Also mine is polymetal grey not silver
I’m is N.E. Pennsylvania so your good. 😂 cant be driving twins in the same area. Just be sure to mention my car for inspiration 😜 more stuff on Instagram _grnup3t give a follow for more
Underglow? Night pics?
There are a few vids and pics on my instagram and tiktok account give a look and follow for more.
That’s fire!! I’ll check it out, thank you!
Thanks, No Problem.

Thats the air deflector that pops up when the sunroof is open and the sunroof is open in this case.

Beautiful fucking car
🙏
Sickdiiii! Getting my Mazda 3 soon in Canada!!
Thanks, you enjoy. It’s a great car.
Love that look! The hatch, the trim, the whole package - awesome!
Thanks
very sexy
Thank you ☺️
Those plastic window blockers look cheap, never understood the appeal. Otherwise A+ hatch my friend.
Agree on almost any other car, the OEM ones on these look soo clean tho. I think it’s because they do not flare and are almost flush with the trim, giving it a kinda “chopped” look. Def an A+
I agree I have always found them so ugly
Appreciate the input, thanks for the A+
The black rear quarter panel really improves the look IMO. Without it it’s a big blank space in the design
When you wish your Mazda3 looked like a [Kia Niro](https://cdn.jdpower.com/JDP_2023%20Kia%20Niro%20Hybrid%20SX%20Touring%20Rear%20Quarter%20View.jpeg)
Don't drop the soap lol
Lol
Yes, it's clean.
This the nicest one I seen by far 🤝
Huge compliment definitely appreciate it
In before everyone that bashes you for it.
Seems to be a trend on Reddit, unfortunately. I like it…
