    2014 Mazda6 Project

    H11 HID kit were installed yesterday and the colors match at 5000K. 43000K may be closer, but it would be lower than the headlights. I'll take the slight brighter 5000K. Install was easy, it was taking the plastic skip plate that took long. Ballasts and bulbs dropped right in. Now, just...

    2014 Mazda6 Project

    Sorry that was a typo. I meant 5000K HID kit for the fog lights so that they match the Bi Xenon headlights. Ordered them from Japan so that they are not the cheap China stuff. Does anyone know how to get their hands on this body kit from Mazda Japan OEM factory? I'm interested in the side...

    2014 Mazda6 Project

    I was thinking of factory mud flaps, but I might do a clear vinyl in that area. Not a fan of flaps. I will go with gloss to match the dark tint. There is a Geniais here with a flat carbon roof, takes away from the look. It's not a race car and I'm trying to keep it clean. I've had my share...

    2014 Mazda6 Project

    No difference in ride quality...road noise, yes! Turning feels more in control, but I can hear every rock and gravel being thrown into the fenders. This car is strictly for work and commuting and will be driving clients around. I wanted to keep it stock height for now but wanted to fill up...

    Question for Current Owners / Technophiles about the new Mazda6

    I bought my car last Friday and I filled up for the first time last night. I drive about 80 on the FWY and I've driven this car all weekend. At 418 miles with 1/8 of a tank left. I spent $58 for a full tank at 16.5 gallons and the LED screen said 501 miles to empty...I almost cried. For the...

    Who wants my wheels?

    Okay, I will find out more info on the springs tomorrow. I have decided not to lower the 6 for now. I'm going 245/40/20 with Niche M129 8.5" all around. It will fill the well, but won't lift the car...we'll see about wheel rub. If I would lower it, I would have gone with 235/30/20, but with...

    New to Mazda, New Owner, New!

    I just meant that the 3 is zippy with the loud wheel noise and the tight handling and stiff body. The 6 felt similar but just quiet, fast, longer...different. That's the word different, yet familiar.
