It's gone up a bit now that I've been taking it to work. I only drive about 20 miles to and from work but it's all highway. That has really bumped up the MPG. It's up to 22.3 avrg When driving locally it's just to the local stores. 20-30 miles stop n go.

Rear emblem is just dble sticky tape. Try it with the heat gun. Mine has 2 settings and tried it on low at first. Then a little on high and it started coming off right away. Don't force the emblem off. Use the heat to release the glue. I sorta forced mine and it bent the emblem a little and had...

The MPG has been increasing slowly the more I drive it to work. It's up to 21.8 average now

Ehh. like I said u really can't tell unless u stick ur face in it. I'm not gonna sweat a cple nicks n scratches. it's not a show car, it's a daily driver. It already has a few scratches from squeezing buy it while parking in the garage with my truck in there.

You talkin about the garage seal lip not half bad? It's under $20 worth of stuff from any hardware store. Yea. The more I look at it, the more I think I'll end up just making one.

I have a 2015 CX5 and really want to make the front a little more sportier looking. I know theres 2-3 really expensive options but has anyone tried sizing up a M3 or M6 aftermarket lips? That's if they even make them. I tried the garage door weather stripping front lip just for sh!ts N giggles...

I really didn't butcher it. Unless you stick ur face right up to it. It would of taken longer taping it off and worrying about over spray.

Good to know^ I really didn't bother looking at how the grill comes apart cause everyone was saying it is way to time consuming.

I did nick up the grill around the emblem a little though :-( I was in a hurry. It's not noticeable unless ur lookin right at it.

Yea I know a lot of people have painted their mazda emblems. I just did mine but instead of paint them on the car I removed them. I took a little upholstery pry bar and pulled it back just enough to stick a little pick in to release the clips. It was actually really easy! I didnt have to mask...

I got a 15 CX5 and noticed the front end is really similar with the 3. I would really like to add a front lip and figured I would ask over here if anyone has tried fitting one?

Im pretty sure that car wasn't modified to be a sports car. I know plenty of car culture clubs that build a car just for looks. You don't bag and drop a car to go to the circuit track.

Once they break the lug nuts loose it will tear the plastidip and it will start to peal from there. U should of removed the wheels when u dipped them

Dayammmm!

No I really don't care about MPG that much. My Xterra gets 14mpg average. U just thought the average would be higher but I guess switching it to current will make me happy. I only go easy on the mazda when the kids are in the back. I love the way it handles. I use to have a MP5 before my Xterra...
