Well, I've been working on my own motorcycles for about 18 years, so I've got a good collection of floor jacks, jack stands, atv pneumatic lifts, etc. I should be able to rig something up to hold one side at a time. Thanks for the heads up.
What have you done to your CX-5 today?

Congrats on finally getting it straightened out, I'm happy for you. I noticed the two specs from the 1st and 2nd time you went in are quite different, especially the front toe. The 1st time front total toe was +1.0 (!), which is ridiculously excessive. Your experiment proves my educated theory that your adjustable arm will generate improved + rear camber on our CX-5s. -1.2 rear camber angles with a 3 1/4" drop is outstanding! [emoji106] I want to be next in line to do this, along with retrofiting paddle shifters, but with a '15 under warranty and needing some TSBs taken care of, I'm not looking for a hassle from Mazda. Possibly soon, though.
No problem. Thanks for doing the camber arms on your vehicle and being the guinea pig. I still have all the parts saved in my eBay watch page you listed to do the arms [emoji106]
It was a cheap job and a good outcome. I like, how my car rides now. I have to watch what comes up ahead of me, but at least I'm not driving that fast this way....and I look different then others. This way is, with any lowered car. I don't even have to approach a drive way, in an angle. It has a sedan's height.
I'm noticing, some Mazda 3 cars(specially speed 3s), checking my car out on the freeway. They come behind me, around me.

Tinted front two windows to match the rest (20%).
Painted wheels anthracite grey and applied gloss coats, all with plasti-dip.

Not today. But this past weekend had a tire blow out in a storm and put me into a concrete center divider at about 65. I'm alright, but so far $11,000 in damage so not officially totaled yet but they haven't taken anything apart or got it on a lift yet.
I bought some OEM Mud flaps. Put them on (took 30 minutes to install). Didn't like the looks and took them off 5 minutes later -_-.
I hate that this car came so perfect off the lot. There's nothing I can do to make it better. *sigh* first world problems.

I didn't do it myself - the door panel inserts were included with the CX-5 leather kit from Classic Soft Trim: http://www.classicsofttrim.com I dropped the car off at their local installation center, and 24 hours later it was done.

Yea it definitely was and am lucky it spun me and hit the passenger side. At this point I'm really hoping for a total loss with that much damage.
