2014 Mazda 3

[acmech]

Haha I think it looks cool. But I'll be getting a hatch :-/

[Yatta]

Went to Mazda North Edsa today. Best they could offer was a cash discount of P5k for the hatch and P10k for the sedan. This includes LTO, TPL and 3M tints. Though even without the tints I like the stock smoked rear glass and clear fronts, very JDM.

[travajante]

Yatta sir, stay the course w/ the plan of fishbowled(tintless) hatch. That LTO sticker w/ stick out like a sore thumb thru a dark windshield & those 2 summer months are a loooong way from now.....biggest hatch advantage? Boot space....a bike fits in there!!!!

[Yatta]

Never really a fan of full dark manyak tints. I already have an idea of what theme for my Mz3, JDM like one of my professor's.

[travajante]

Careful, the line is thin between JDM & ricer.

[Yatta]

No worries, I spent 8 years studying in Japan. I know a poser a mile away.

[travajante]

Glad to know, Yattasan....
I've a brothah on here who's disciplined by nippon swordsmanship, a Samurai warrior...... Among the few blessed with both acquired knowledge & innate taste. Sadly, his hands are bound by Yojin3.
You'll get to hear of/from him more on the other side.

[travajante]

Yattasan, I'm really hoping the name of the professor you look up to is Yatabe Kiyomasa....I'm a big fan of what he did here....so sick!!!!

[Yatta]

Still no sign of the new Mz2 in the 2 dealers I visited though. They're still selling the Zoomzoom models.

For those who own Mazda3, how is it heat rejection of the factory tinted rear windows? Do we still need to overlay it with another tint?

[travajante]

Pretty pleased w/ rear factory tint, really. Then again, I'm a fishbowl convert for a while now.

So not necessary to overlay it with tint like V-Kool tint?

Walter, sir, adding VKool would definitely block off more radiation, UV & heat....it'll be your call, sir.

Mas masakit sakin yung init nung harap kesa sa likod kasi windshield tint lang ako, but then again you can have a light or medium tint instead sa rear windows para hindi halata yung color difference pag papatint ng dark sa side windows ng front

[Hot Hatch]

May heat rejection pala yung factory tint.

Travajante, ang daming naghahanap sayo sa FB, balik ka na!

Glenn, sir, twas a hand-me-down set. My brothah Geo S might know better & be able to help you w/ sourcing these rims there.

V grille trim & beltline are best w/ 3M vinyl wrap. It's durable yet reversible.....Great DIY mod, anger management & patience therapy. Haha.
For the badges, I'd go Duplicolor Shadow Chrome rattle can. I'm not into black front badge as it'll look like a blank spot from afar, like the badge was stolen.

Plastidip just doesn't cut it for me.
