    Painted front and rear black platic bumper covers

    Looks great! Do you have a pic of the rear of the car from further back? I think the black plastic is a little tacky too, but maybe to give the illusion of width???? Curious to see from the distance how it looks...thanks

    Mazda6 Touring with or without tech

    Hi Quizo, I would definitely get the Tech package if you can swing it....but if your budget doesn't allow, do the right thing..you can add stuff later. I bought a Touring about a month ago(my budget wouldnt allow for the Grand Touring, just couldnt afford it) and it came with the Tech...

    I recently installed the 8" 50 watt bazooka in my 2009 mazda5, stock 6 speaker system. Did exactly what i was hoping, added bass and rear prescence to the overall sound. Had to turn the bass level waaaay down. Works really well.

    Mazda5 Tires: Issues & Replacement Recommendations

    Replaced the Conti DWS 225-45's with 33,000 miles. Car sounded like a rear hub bearing was going out, when you could hear it through all the noise. They were also cupped, followed every paving overlap in the road and were just plain shot. Discount Tire installed Pirelli P7's(a gamble for me as i...

    Does anybody really have mz3 koni or bilstein on their mz5?

    Ok, i installed the Konis for the rear last night...set them at middle position. Wow! As i suspected, the KYB's were not even close to the ride of the stock shocks and really left the rear end of the car feeling loose like it needed bushings or something. I am running 225/45 Conti dws at 36...

    Very interested in this......i blew a rear shock at 60,000 miles in my 2009 mazda 5, replaced them with KYB's and am not satisfied. The stock shocks did a better job, but are not durable. I had Koni FSD's and yellows in mind. I have boiled it down to buying the stock shocks again or Koni...
