Goldmember - My MX3 V6 Turbo

It's been a long road, but the car is finally in a state that I consider done...for now.

  • Painted (The car's nickname is Goldmember, so the color choice was obvious)
  • Shaved a few things (listed below in mod list)
  • Painted the Engine Bay
  • Got the OEM Side Skirts
  • Mazdaspeed Front Bumper
  • Powdercoated the engine bay to match the color scheme of the car
  • Trapped 120mph
  • Made an 11 second pass
  • Only a few things left to do on my list.  As I complete them, I'll add them to the list of accomplishments.
