Is that an actual photo of the parts that were used in your conversion. It's interesting that the long silver metal part shown at the bottom of your pic is not shown in the eBay ad pic and the retainer part number you use is different than that shown in the eBay pic.

Using the parts listed by RedPanda (same as in the eBay ad), total price from Mazdapartswholesale.com is about $290.

Wow, that's crazy! $290.00 just to change the style of the grill (not even including labor)!

For the price of 100 grill make-overs you could buy a brand new CX-5 including tires! And for $29,000 it would be well equipped too.

Fascinating and useful insight as usual Mike.

The pic was found off a Japanese auction page
 
Does the 2016 CX-5 have the same option as the 2016 Mazda6 where the front grill lights up with LED's at night? I saw this on a Mazda6 and it looked REALLY cool.

I'm debating whether or not I should spend $230 for a pair of non-US spec low-profile rear headrests. So for the price of 100 pairs of headrest I can buy a brand new CX-5 Sport with 6-speed manual like yours and enjoy the fun of manual shifting. But the problem is the rear view still gets blocked by these big-and-tall rear seat headrests! (boom01)

Mazda logo for ACC on a front grille

For my CX5,2015 European model I recently bought the front grille due to a small accident. But in the center of grille, the Mazda logo doesn't mach. Is missing a part, and I don't know which is it.

This is a bit of a thread necro. Next time might want to start your own thread.

As for the picture, it's not working for me.
 
Hello,
My name is Eric and I am new on this forum. I just bought my first Mazda (2014 CX-5) and would really like to swap the grille with the 2016 one.
I found one at a local repairshop, but the partnumber of this grille is KA0G-50712 in stead of KA0G-50710B...
Anyone knows the difference between the 2?
I prefer not to pop the bumper off if I am not sure it will fit...
Any has more info about this?

Thanks !

Eric
