I've never seen cheap finishers or knock-offs.

Let us know if you find any.....

I ordered mine from Trussville Mazda last year. I had to use up the $500 cash back from Mazda because of the mess up claiming the wrong horse power output. Here are some pics.

Yes mud flaps, had to wait for them to be painted(6 days) but 4 days later arrived England.

I would like those but they are overpriced and I heard they suck to put on. Opinions?

Exhast finishers or mud flaps?
I don't have the finishers but the flap took about a hour to fit, and I changed the strakes at the same time. I think the finisher need some of the plastic removing to fit but I might be wrong.

Overpriced: YES

Hard to install: NO.

So long as you DO NOT follow Mazda's instructions. Hardest part is removing the trim without breaking any plastic tabs.

Sorry, not the mud flaps. Put them on already in the rear but did have a problem with the nut coming out of two of the bolts. Impossible to get back in. I was talking the finishers.

Exhaust finishers are a real waist of money...it is a small sheet of metal that you can barely see and only at an angle...forget it, save your money for something better...I'm so glad I didn't buy these (almost did :eek: )

I second that. I bought them and wish I hadn't. Could have spent the money more wisely.

I like the way they look--but they are too much damn money. That's why I'm not getting them until I am through with everything else on my short list of things to do.
