2017~2025 Anyone buy these CX-5 grill trim covers?

Page Not Found - Aliexpress.com

Looks like a cheaper option to wrapping, while still being glossy black vs plastidip. But this isn't a replacement trim, it looks like it gets double sided taped over the existing. Any experiences?

Hmmm, interesting. I love going on Aliexpress and just using the search terms 'CX-5 accessories' or CX-5 trim" Same with ebay

I have them for my 2021 Sig but haven’t put them on

they look like surprisingly good quality and match the piano black trim on the rear windows - and stick on with typical two sided tape

They also match well the aftermarket black roof rails you can get on Amazon and Ali

I like. I just wish there was an easy way to remove and reinstall for occasional cleaning underneath. I guess new tape each time isn't a terrible option

Thanks. Do you have a link for those?

Do the trim covers fully cover the chrome?

If they fit well there won't be much to clean, but if you have to remove and reinstall them every few months it negates any savings of getting it wrapped or plastidip.

For the roofrails -- you can probably get them off of Ali -- but here's where I got them on Amazon -- https://www.amazon.com (commissions earned)

They appear to be of similar quality as OEM and install the same way


For the Grill Cover -- yea, they look like they will. I didnt press all the way on the photo, because I didnt want risk them getting stuck when I wasnt ready to put them on long term

Thanks.

The kit with cross bars seems a bit cheaper than Ali, however the ones on Ali have a different crossbar that is slotted. It would be useful if you have existing euro style / Thule accessories.

Well, at minimum there' the space/width of the double sided tape. Not much, but still

I looks like the same tape used on interior trim part from China. It will do the job but can stillbe taken off without too much effort

 

[hadeone]

I'll give them a shot for $40. Wrapper quoted around $300 for the front and chrome window trim.

You're right I'll check the doc next time, before requesting links.

I recently installed some covers I purchased in ebay quite some time ago. This was the last of the chrome on the car. I'm old, and liked the chrome, so I'm not sure yet if they'll stay on.

Also, these are a metallic black, very similar to Mazda's black mica. Also recently added a black rear spoiler from Aliexpress, that also came Ina metallic.
