MX-3 Chic
Sup guys,
I've had my MX for 3yrs now and am finally able to do something with her. I got my boys that would help me but they live all the way in B-town so Im solo on this project and need some knowledge.....I got the rims and tires on the way, the kit should be here in 3 weeks, I want to get down on my interiors but dont know where to start......it needs sanding, bondo, n primering before i get her paint job.....damn, now that im writing it all down it's kind of overwhelming......any advice?

I would start on the exterior. And know that this WILL take more then a day or a week, you need to take our time to make it look nice. But welcome and check out the Mazda tech forum they can give you some good insight.

What is "the kit" that you speak of?
What interior stuff neds to be done?
Usually I do the exterior first, 'cuz if it looks good, a person doesn't mind working on it. -Bob

if it is a show car or something to make the boys cry when you beat them either way start from the inside out
there is nothing worse than trying to work on a car while worrying about the paint.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.
