Hey Everyone,

So here's a side view of my CX-5. Basically stock aside from it sitting on H&R Springs, LEDs all around, and Spacers on the wheels until I can save up enough money before the good weather arrives to purchase 20s and wider tires. looking forward to socializing on the forums.

ps... I have previously owned a Speed 6, and a Speed 3, both fantastic cars!

Looks great, question what are the benefits of the wheel spacers!
 
TBH its a cosmetic mod you can choose to do to make your thinner tires stand out more flush to your fenders in the case your are running stock tires with stock rims. it drives normal, but i much rather purchase wider tires and rims when the money is right then take them off! Cheers
 
No CX5 but also nice [emoji1360]

Added roof rails, blacked out chrome trim, and tinted windows. Did the factory darker, then the fronts to match (5% I believe). On the inside just have OEM factory floor mats. Still not sure whether the front grill with remain blacked out.
 
Anybody know how low can a Genuine Mazda Remote start for a 2016 grand touring is?
They're selling the whole thing with installation in my area for around $500-800 and only one key FOB (which is understandable)
but I mean, that's too much isn't it?

I would look around for the Mazda remote start that can be incorporated into your existing key fobs. I got if for under 500 here, and both my OEM key fobs have it incorporated to push the lock button three times for the start. Otherwise for the price I would just go with something like a viper system, comes with 2 keys and has lots of options

Cheers for posting this! I have the Machine Grey as well and going to do a Chrome-delete soon too.

Did you vinyl wrap? What kind/color? Its probably the lighting, but it looks like it matches the grey.

Did you do the rear emblems? Would love to see more! Great work.

Thanks! For the window trim I used 3M 1080 Matte Black. Matches the factory black trim pretty close. I had originally wanted to wrap the grill too, but looking at it I thought it would take way too long for me to learn the technique to do it even moderately well, so I went with Plastidip. Did about 5 coats of black and several coats of their Glossifier. I did not do the emblems on the rear as I did not want everything black. I like having a couple of pops on there, with the roof rails matching the exposed metal on the rims. I didn't really like how the roof rails and the rims were aluminum, and the moldings and grill were chrome. Here is another picture where it isn't so sunny out, which shows the black a little better.
