What have you done to your CX-5 today?

got pit maneuvered by a grandma and hit again while I was spinning by her. She tried to exit off the highway quickly and ended up in a ditch though. No injuries. The gayest part about the whole thing was I handled the spin like a boss if she didn't try to pass me as I was spinning I wouldn't have damage on my car. At least 3 spins, as soon as I stopped I went out the median and whipped back around to where she went 4 wheeling. I managed to pop a small dent out and I think I can pop the rest out until I can take it in. Good thing I had my suspesnon/wheels as is bcause I may have flipped, especially when I went into the grass.

What a mess! Sorry to hear about this. (And not just the Buick with vinyl roof)
 
2 months and 2 fender benders. I'm waiting for them to establish fault on the too old to be driving lady, meanwhile I drop the car off tomorrow.
 
Anyhow, back to our regularly scheduled programming.

I washed the car today! Loved the sheeting and beading action after the polish, sealant and waxing I gave it!!

Last time I did that, I sold it that afternoon. But it sure looked good!

Those NX grills are flimsy as well. We looked at one and I thought the first price of debris to hit would put a hole right thru it. Not to mention it looks like a nightmare to keep it clean.
 
That is pretty much what I did, just better. Better in a way, that the bushing can be replaced. On the factory, it can't be, so when it comes the time for me, to replace the bushings, I need to make new arms. Pretty lame, that Mazda went this route. Let's see for how much they will sell these.
I will try today too, to get the alignment done.

Yea, that is for adjustable toe, but I noticed it looked a lot like the one you fabbed.
 
I emailed Hardrace and asked them about adjustable camber arms and this is the response I got back:

nice, a bit of confirmation then. I didn't doubt the e-mail seeing as they offer an adjustable toe arm, which is usually harder to find than a camber arm
 
For the toe, there is already an adjustment, why would you need a second adjustment?

@Tibimakai, is that issue for the rear-axle ? Now my rear-wheels are on the above-side a little inside the fender when you look behind the car, the adjustable camber makes the wheel go straight ?
