There's a whole thread with bodykit links/pics in this section.

project.r.racing · 18-06-2008, 06:48 AM

keep it stock, don't play with the well designed lines of your car.

if you do need to mod the exterior. then the mazdaspeed lip and sides are the way to go.

oh wow i wish i did this b4 i bought my kit from here

so many sexy ones

ExxNtRiK · 25-06-2008, 10:27 AM

hey huddo thort id mention this...your car is more likely a 96 model. the mazda logo changed in 97 to the current one it is today and yours is the older logo

RedLineResident · 25-06-2008, 11:08 AM

my suggestion is somewhat strage. but i think you shouldn't worry about the kit, get some nice 17" or 18" wheels and spends decent money on suspension.

It will look a million bucks. The cars got a great shape, there is really no need (in my humble opinion) to put a kit on it.

It may look too flash, and too show then.

If you get a kit, id then suggest something suttle that will blend with the current shape of the car, and not change it too much and make too loud.

hey bud, wont really mater as long as its a BA...there the same front and read bars and side skirts from 1994-1998 when it was a BA

DavoAust · 25-06-2008, 10:45 PM

my car is march '97 and has the old logos so year doesnt really help that much.

I'd say get eyelids but no kit. the hatches look hot with the eye lids

doubleknavery · 12-08-2008, 05:05 PM
