2012 Mazda3UR mod thread
Virgin mazda 3 skyactiv
35% front windows, 20% back windows
3m di-noc black carbon fiber wrapped front emblem
Custom molded in DRL LED
3000k UR HID fogs. They need to be moved up as they are hitting 4foot in front of the car.
Staytooned

Love the paint color and fleck. Nice carbon fibre on the Logo. You should make in in to an Evil M (at the back anyway---easier than front). Nice LED array.
Mine is blue too!

Those are HID projectors, but the pic does leave a lot to the imagination, Keith.
The car's comin' along for sure!
I'm curious about the DRL's? Is that a modified stock piece of bodywork, or something else (e.g. aftermarket lip?)
And though a bit apples and oranges, it's interesting you disabled the DRL's on the Vibe and added them to the Mazda? LOL

It is a video!
Cool! You fooled us!
Focus is still out. One thing I learned when making videos is that you only get one chance to really focus with today's thin cameras and that is right before you start. Pick an item from 2 feet away and slowly press down the start button 1/2 way allowing it to focus. Press fully to start (obviously) and move slowly and stop once in a while.
I see your logo on your ballasts, very nice.
How much does this stuff cost for HID?
Are you putting in new lenses as well and how much?
Not that I can afford right now, but interested as well as others logging on.
The future looks bright.

Hafta'wait till I get home for the vid.
Re DRL's: Hence my apples and oranges comment. I thought of that, but it still seems a bit ironic when you think about it.... or to me @ 3AM at least.

The camera is crappy and the auto focus sucks with no option to manual focus.
The entire projector was replaced, there is a difference between hid projectors and halogen projectors.
Not too sure I want to do another mazda 3 set of headlights. they don't fit in my oven and I need to use my heatgun to heat them up. TAKES FOREVER!
I'll have to check to see if they fit in my other oven....
Pricing is dependent on what someone wants done.
To give you an idea, my h11 bulbs with 35watt slim ballasts shipped to the states run 100bucks, and an h11 relay harness harness included. This is just for the plug and play set up that most run.
