Default Rookie Mazda here!

Hello everyone! I'm really excited to finally be part of a forum and I'm hoping I can learn lots from all of you. I'm 19 and got my first car a 2004 Mazda 3 hatch with 156k miles on it about 6 months ago. It's become a best friend to me and I love the thing! I really didn't know much about cars before I got it but I was eager to do something to it so I did a lot of paint work with Plasti dip to the car and put well over 50 hours into it just doing paint. As far as performance I really haven't done anything. I changed all the rotors and brakes and rear calipers. Also I had to replace the thermostat. So Ive learned some very basic car repair stuff. Anyway theres a picture below of my car. I'm really curious if any of you know of some fun easy mods I could do that would help the performance. Thanks for reading!

Welcome aboard. I'm a relative new comer as well but I figure that I would say hello vs read your thread and not say anything at all.

50 hours of paint..that's impressive! I haven't gotten into the plasti dip craz yet. I may have to pick some up and give it a try.

Cheers!

Make sure you "LAY IT ON THICK" that is the biggest problem people have during removal.. Speaking from personal experience ..
