It was painted on the vehicle. We had the license plate holes filled and the bumper cover repainted as well. What is funny is that the body shop was supposed to paint the chrome piece Machine Gray, but they screwed up and painted it black (along with the lower accessory bumper trim piece)...

Still love our played out look !!

Gonna miss your M4? I can't think of parting with my M2, makes me smile everyday.

I am a Subaru guy, hence my forum name. We had a 2017 Forester XT deal worked out before we bought the CX-5. The engine is great and the power/sounds were reminiscent of my 2013 WRX, but two things prevented us from ultimately pulling the trigger. The front seats which my wife couldn't get...

Good looking VW! Good taste in wheel selection too (rofl2)

Looks great...no rubbing issues with the 255's? I have 245/20's on ours as the place I ordered our wheel/tire combo set from said the 255's would rub. My offset is also 35.

My wife cannot stand the black plastic cladding...went with Machine Gray as well for this reason.

No damage to the paint at all, just need the paint to cure before PPF application, minimum 30 days.

Had mine painted black and then had it wrapped with PPF.

Touch pad interface absolutely blows too...

I've started deleting the chrome on ours...grille piece and lower bumper trim piece done so far. I have a buddy that owns a wrapping company, going to have him do the window trim and roof rails. Definitely makes it standout from the growing number of CX5's in our area! I also have 20" TSW's...

It's very entertaining seeing all the twists and turns this thread has taken!!

Yea, I was pleasantly surprised. OEM pizza cutters (with 900 miles on them) Sprints

Thanks...M2 makes up for relative lack of CX5 HP...!

I previously had a 2016 SQ5 as my daily driver for 1 year and about 22K miles. The engine and power was fantastic but the transmission logic sucked and didn't match well with the engine output. Our 2017 CX5 has a much better balanced powertrain than the previous gen SQ5 did. For the money...

I agree with this...while we have a Machine Gray CX-5, we had to have a new front bumper installed due to shrapnel from an accident that occurred in the lane next to my wife. The first time the body shop painted the bumper, the color didn't match... The body shop called PPG and they sent...

Welcome and congrats!! This is the main reason we opted for our 2017 CX5. While it was a new model, the mechanicals are all proven. We test drove a 2017 CRV Touring before we bought the CX5 and my wife really disliked it. We are extremely happy with our decision and hope you will be too! And...

I had a custom strip of paint protection film installed on the rear bumper when my front end clear bra was installed.
