Got reflector film from www.rockblocker.com. Took off the 3 and 2.3 emblems. Painted the Mazda emblems and Axela emblem. Smoked the sidemarkers. I'm really in love with my car.

Not a fan of smoked lenses, but looks really good. Only other thing i'd change is not to cover up the rear lower reflectors (i know defeats the purpose) but they area safety issue in my mind.

Hard to tell for sure from the pics, but the badges look like they match the wheels really nicely.

wow....love the emblems. I may have to do that. was it hard to take the emblems off to paint them? Also, I may just be an idiot, but I cannot find any kits for the reflectors and stuff...how much did you spend on that?

Looks hot rum.

How are the Rear Smoked Reflectors to put on? Are they just simple peel off a backing and stick on?

I got the eyelids from accolade. In fact they use my car in their ebay auctions :)
I got the rear reflector film from a local company here named rockblocker (rockblocker.com). Yes they just stick over the reflectors.
For the 2.3 and 3 badges i just used dental floss to saw through the adhesive and then goo gone to remove the adhesive. With the Mazda emblem and logo i used dental floss to saw through the adhesive and then pryed them off with a flat head screwdriver since the are stuck on with pins. Now they just snap on and off. For the paint i used Krylone Fusion GLossy Black and then put a clear coat over it.

Thank for the comments!

so you didn't need to pull the little cup like retainer things off, on the inside of the trunk lid that hold the badge pins in?

You just pulled the badge from the outside, but did those cup things stay on? is that what you mean by *snaps* back in now?

thanks.

Just so everyone knows, when using the reflector covers, the reflectors still reflect.....I have the smoked reflector covers, and when headlights hit them they work like normal!
Hope this helps :-)

Thank for the comments! Another good way of getting emblems off is to use a hairdryer to heat them up, and just peel them off. This way there is no use of anything that will scratch the paint. Also, what kind of clear coat did you use? I've used fusion before and it has worked really well. Krylon Rustoleum works well also, and have a larger selection of colors.

RockBlocker: Yes, I received your voicemail. I do not have a day off this week so I'm not sure when we can meet up.

Trav77: The film for all 4 reflectors was about $20. I plan on removing the side moldings my next day off, whenever that may be. As for the grille, I got it from www.erebunicorp.com and am not satisfied with it. It does not fit properly as there is a small gap in the front. I was able to position it to minimize the gap but am still not happy and will be buying the S model grille that just came out shortly. Seasoned or Homestyle Fries?

The Smoked rear lights plus reflector kit is $64.95, what could we get it for on a group buy?

When you use heat to take off the badges, how you you reapply them? do you need new double side tape?

Why smoke the rear lights?

Also, I didnt use heat to remove the badges. I used floss and then just popped them off. They have little pegs that pop in and out of the trunk for easy removal and replacement.
