The guages are from Racing Beat. You can order the pod and get your own guages, I forgot what the size is though. BTW I would have to look around, for the non CF autobahn vents. I think bulletproof (posted in this thread) told me he had found some. Shoot him a PM.
Gottal tell you, I love the coilovers! One of the best things I could do for my 8-when I finally got the OK from my GF.

^thanks man, congrats on the car. The bodykit is from Mazdaspeed. The wheels are Volk GT-V 19x8.5 + 49 front and 19x9.5 + 46 rear. The kit installation is straight forward and was pre-painted, it is a bit on the expensive side. I don't know if its available in your color.

ok here is the link for the non cf autobahn side vents i found for only $109.00
took me awhile to find them for some reason so i bookmarked them on my home computer which is where i am now

unless you want the cf one for looks alone these are the ones to get. They come in black like the stock vents. When I get mine I will probably install them as is at first to see if I want to keep them black. of course you can have them painted like hernandez did which looks pretty damn good too.

Bulletproof, nice! I think those look good and like you said, even better painted. A lot more economical than what I paid for mine initially.
FYI, I bought a set of the Autobahn mirrors and wasn't to impressed with the quality either. It required too much assembly on the consumer end and for the price of some of their parts I just expected more..just my two cents.
BTW, I think I still have the mirrors. If anyone is interested I can dig 'em out..

My GF's Ride
Hey guys, just thought I'd share some pics I took of my GF's MS3. Most of the work has been on the suspension-Coilovers, sways bars, underbody reinforcements and such-and some asthetic work as you can already tell
Bonus!!!

There are certain cars that undoubtedly qualify as strictly "chic cars". IMO this one doesn't quite apply. I have driven the hell out of it with the suspension carrying me through the corners quite well...

the lip I am ordering too from Japan Parts. the JDM prestige edition. looks great and I really wanted it for a long time.
the CF trunk lid though is a problem for me. I want one that can match a CF hood I am planning to install later. in other words I want a trunk from a manufacturer that also produces hoods. I think they will look great on my white.
BTW Ever the whole setup looks great on your car. Keep up the good work.
Beers guys
