Guys i have noticed that in the rear wheels half lang may plastic protection unlike sa front ok lang ba ito or may nabibili naman na mud guard?

Reason why newer cars switched to felt-type rear wheel liners is for sound deadening. You don't & shouldn't have to wash them as frequently as plastic 1s. They hide grime & dirt well anyway.

The front also has that but with additional plastic guards im wondering parang tinipid yung likod? Hahaha

Or bihira naman magka putik yang part na yan kaya hindi na nila nilagyan ng additional plastic guards?

Not just Mazda, the Euros initiated this around mid 2k-ish. When I first saw the change, I just shook my head. I, too, love the old plastic wells.

Ok, let's jumpstart 2016.....
Cliche: What are your New Year's resolutions?
Me? Got 1 done earlier today.....
The DIY:
1. Removed the grille Mblem. How? You push out the side clips 1st thru the notches behind the grille. After sides, the top, then pull the bottom...no tools needed.

How the grille looks w/o the M...

2. Here's the why?

3. Followed this DIY video:
https://youtu.be/lUPcm3ALQik
4. After 3 shadow coats & 3 clears w/ 10-20mins between....the chrome turned shadow hyperblack....2 shadows would've been perfect but I had to be the sacrificial guinea for those who'd want this....haha

5. The pre & post....

I know...1 shadow coat too dark...but he has gotta stay true to his BlackMouth name... Some will love, some will hate....your thoughts, just the same?
For those who dig the blackout, this hyperback theme will be perfect for the chrome grille trim & beltline. Never been a fan of Plastidip. Hehe....

Now, quit slackin' & share your resolutions here. Hehe
A modful 2016, y'all!!!!

Sir, normal lng yata yan, I also heard it after I turned off the ignition and open the door, parang may nag shutdown sa loob ng dashboard, tama ba?

Yup mukhang normal lang nga sir vinrem. Di lang ko sanay kasi pag bukas pinto at aalis na may tumutunog na parang ayaw ako paalisin, na baka may nakalimutan akong i off hehe.

Currently at 800+ odo, overall sobrang satisfied ako sa ride natin yung ride comfort is not a big deal naman comfortable naman mga passengers ko.😊 Cguro sa maseselan lang talaga nakakapansin na medyo matagtag ang mz3. Basta dahan dahan lang sa lubak hehe.

If it's any consolation, chiezee sir, the ride & drive mimic much the bimmer behavior. Premium sans the cost.

Medyo matagtag nga ride ng MZ3 compare sa ibang cars that I rode sa area ko, kaya dahan - dahan din akong mag drive lalo na sa speed humps.

Is it just the lighting or did you also shadow painted the grille? It looks great 😊

Thanks, chiezee sir, but it's just lighting. You can't apply shadow on black. The kit is to turn chrome parts into hyperback w/o sanding.
Both pics taken * different settings. Note that I still had a temp europlate on the pre-pic. The chrome grille trim & beltline..I vinyl-wrapped way back last year....I waited for the Shadow Chrome kit to finally show up for the Mblem.

[travajante]

If for some unintentional reason you got chrome wheels....don't fret. 1 kit of Dupli-color Shadow Chrome can do 4 wheels....

Da who spotted * a mazda casa?? :what: word from the service/tech crew is that this masterless 3 has been there for some time... crippled by the harmful effects of mutation. can mutation be undone? thankful lowly hobo-sapiens like me are immune from this dilemma
