2008 Aero Package

[markman69]

Anyone have some good pics of the CX-7 with the Aero package? So far, all I have been able to find is this:

Also, since the 07's already have a small spoiler in the back, will it have to be removed to install the Aero package spoiler? Is it available in the US yet? Is there an aftermarket front spoiler/air dam already available? Thanks

looks like you can buy it in the US - http://www.trademotion.com/partloca...&siteid=214264&categoryID=89455&subcat1=89457 - see page 2

^Nice... the wife has been going nuts over the larger spoiler. Not sure what the other parts of the package are?

 

[mogulman]

anyone know how this mounts (remove old spoiler, etc)?

 

[mogulman]

Looks like they have the silver underguards and door pieces, too. hmm..

 

[markman69]

$325 delivered for the aero package... anyone know how it is mounted?

 

[lisevolution]

Yeah I was looking at the Underguards myself, but I think I may go for the aero package... I have to see what it really looks like before making a decision...

rear spoiler looks good, i cant really tell what the rest is

 

[lisevolution]

I think the front is just wind splitter which to me is just ehh.. maybe I'll just stick with my scuff plates look. I think they look sick on the CX-7

[papaalex]

pls post some pics too after, also is the installation hard (need to drill holes or just use a peel off tape).. Ty

 

[markman69]

No telling how long it will take arrive, my local Mazda dealer can't order them, so I suspect it will take the dealership in the link above a while to ship it out to me. Unless the install is very easy, I don't plan on installing it myself, but I will post some pics along with some install details. Am hopefull on the delivery time, response was quick from the dealership:

"This will take 2-3 days to get to me then I will ship them to you via UPS. I will supply you the tracking#. JMBaggie"

 

[lisevolution]

I don't know which I like better now...I feel like if the kit included a body color front splitter, side skirts and rear valence I'd be more inclined to go for it. I think I'm gonna stick with the scuff plates myself

Looks good. Might have to pick that one up.

Well, not impressed with Mazda Canada's customer service. After seeing this post, and seeing the part available in the USA, I e-mailed Mazda Canada to get some information on this part, this is the wonderful reply I received back;

We appreciate your interest in Mazda.

For availability and price, please contact the Sales Department of a Mazda dealership as they are in the best position to assist you with your request. To find a Mazda dealership, please visit http://www.mazda.ca/eng/dealers/dealerlocator.asp.

Clarifies your question, maybe they could try answering a question or two. Instead of just passing it off to their dealers.

I did contact one Mazda dealer in Edmonton, seems they don't have this part number listed at all. I am very impressed! NOT!!:'(

Spoke to the parts department at MedCenter Mazda, Birmingham AL.
They told me the aero kit was $312 and $237 for installation, total $549, with a 3-hour installation time. Order time 2-days.

Whaddya think??

I'm sure its not that hard to install yourself. If its like the foglight kit - it should come with pretty detailed instructions.

Looking under the front bumper, there are a bunch of screws right at the lip - I bet you just take them out, put the front bumper attachment on, and put the screws back in. As for the rear spoiler, I don't know.

But like I said, the instructions for the fog lights were DETAILED, and that is what the dealership uses to install them - the same instructions you would have. If you have any ability to use tools and are like 10% mechanically inclined, I bet its easy.

I would say its probably not worth the 237 installation unless you need whatever warranty comes with the installation. Or you could just simply order the kit - take it home to look at the instructions (scan it to pdf and upload a copy ) If its too hard, call the dealer to have them install it.

Sounds simple enough on the front, it's the rear spoiler that I would not want to attempt myself. Good point on the warranty. I'll definitely check this out. Thx for the reply.

Spoiler FTW!... splitter FTL. Scuff plates FTW!
