rear bumper gaurd

[mastadon]

Hi guys! I just got my MS3 (i will make a real intro thread soon) and i want to know if anyone has put the black plastic rear bumper gaurds on theirs? If this is not clear, i am talking about the things that protect the "top" of the bumper from getting scratched while you load and unload things. I go mountain biking alot and dont want to scratch my bumper with my bike, but the parts guy at my dealership said he didn't know if the gaurds for the regular 3 fit the speed3. Help!

[jam_asian85]

[GhostMercury]

anyone have pics with them on. maybe on a black mica lol

[mastadon]

I thought i saw a TR one with them on but wasn't sure. I will search for the pic.

[Rotus8]

I have 'em. They fit fine.

[jam_asian85]

and i see you also have the cargo tray ...
somone needs to update their sig :P

[mastadon]

YES!!! Rotus, you rule! i am buying them as soon as i can. How do they attach, just some double sided tape or something?

[GhostMercury]

i would assume so. aren't they only like 35 bucks

Bumper Guards - double sided tape, Cargo tray is molded to the shape of the trunk.
Both inexpensive, good investments to keep that new car looking new !

there was a set on ebay a while back that I was watching. Was around the 35.00 mark, great investment I think.

They fit great. I got mine from the dealer for $32.

I have it on my silver 08 because I have dogs that I let jump in the back. It looks great, and I think they look very "base modelish" if they don't have them.

Buy it here, cheapest place anywhere:
http://www.ocmazdaspeed.com/search.asp?txt=&cat=Exterior&model=MAZDA%203%20-%205%20Door&year=2008

$27 from OC mazdaspeed. They are routinely the cheapest and fastest dealer on the interwebz

Great, just placed my order with OC Mazda for the bumper guards and cargo tray. (The cargo tray for the regular 3 fits the Mazdaspeed no problem right?) Thanks!

[mastadon]

thanks for the link! My dealer charged $35 plus taxes and i have to drive over there. These will be $39 shipped to my door!

[GhostMercury]

i talk to alot of the sales guys at my dealership so i dont mind stoping by myself. The service department on the other hand....we dont get along very well

[GhostMercury]

picked them up the other day and installed them earlier.

Impressions,
They look pretty good and the clips they give you to align it makes install easy to do perfectly. I shined them up with tire shine and it looks pretty good. Style, and function, thats whats up.
