Wrong place! There is a 2010 Mazda3 forum on the main page.

There are no mods out yet. But the PRM intake from the previous gen works on the 2010, but causes a CEL.

Not sure of the %, but I told them to make it as dark as they could.

I don't know how dark mine are either since the dealer did it before I even looked at the car. I'm guessing around 25%. They're pretty freakin' dark, but I like it.

The only other things I've seen people do are shift knobs, painted OEM rims, and the alloy pedals (as shown in this thread). The aftermarket needs to hurry up!

I have tints, black calipers, a Street Unit Rear Motor Mount and shifter bushings, and a blacked out front emblem.

Don't know if it's the same design for 2010, but for the 2006 3 it was a simple install using two small bolts with clamps that attach to the moonroof frame. Only tool needed is #2 Phillips-bit screwdriver.....

I guess this is as good a place as any to ask a warranty question, so here goes? haha

So what exactly can we do aftermarket to the car without voiding the warranty? Other than going with the Mazdaspeed accessories that are bound to come out in the next few months. Most of the time they're more expensive and don't perform as well as cheaper alternatives.

You can do just about anything, but if you have a problem and the dealer traces it back to a modification you've done, the warranty is void for the purposes of that claim.

Tinted windows and added a custom ambient light package to the front and rear foot wells.

Thanks. So do I! I kind of wish I had gone with 17's though. The 40 series tires are a little rough on the bad roads where I live.
