Any advice?

any advice on making a mazda 323 nicer to drive/look at its a 00 reg 1.3 litre, I know its a boring car but its the one I bought due to budget and it being a bargain for the price, so I want to make the most of it.
Thanks in advance.

Not much you can do with it IMO mate, maybe a nice set of 16'' Jap style alloys and lower it..Thats all i'd do, then save up for something bigger and better.

Thanks for the reply,
Thats what I was thinking , can I get any alloys or do some only fit some cars? My friend is a panel beater and she said she would put a body kit on for me at cost price. is there any kind of kit I can get for the 323 tho? I cant find any on the internet. I might just do up the inside. I dont want it to look like a "scanger me banger" tho.

I'm fairly sure that u can get any alloys for any car, bar the manufacturer's ones though. Just check out the dimensions on the tires and rims and you will know for sure.

i wouldnt put a bodykit on it, a 323 wouldnt look nice with any sort of kit i'd imagine

You can get any alloys you want. Just make sure they are the right offset and stud pattern for your car. And just incase you don't know the Mazda 323 stud pattern is 4x100 and the offset is 45mm. Try looking at some 16'' Rota wheels. Would look well on a lowered 323.

is it a 323f or saloon?

daauneal

its a saloon,
thanks for the info on the alloys . I'll try to get a picture up later on after work. kind of a "before" pic hopefuly the "after" pic will look better when I'm done with it.

If I were you, I'd keep it simple, get some OE Mazda alloys from a 1.8 model, and front foglights, maybe a subtle rear spoiler.
If you're doing some painting, get the door handles colour coded.
