Name that part.

Whats the exact name of this part? I need it on left and now right side. I called mazda and explained it to the parts guy and i was told that it comes in a kit for 300 bucks. He explained that its the under cover and those two side pieces for 3 something and they don't sell separate. Im ready to buy them but i dont need under cover.



Also my set of tires are about 2 months old and few days ago i put a can of fix-a-flat in the rear driver side tire because i was too lazy to drive all the way back to discount tire; there's possibly a tiny hole but so far its good with fix-a-flat. Well now the tpms light comes on after about 10 mins of driving and just blinks over and over. Im guessing its because of the FaF i put in the tire. Is this something i should bother mazda about or just head to discount tire and those guys should be able to stop that light? Thankx

dude, if the tpms is going off because you have low tire pressure you should get the tire fixed or get a new tire...not tell mazda to turn the light off...

are you missing the large undertray in the middle?

the piece you are missing in that pic is called a 'splash shield.'

the light is on because one of your tires, aka the one you put fix-a-flat in, is not measuring the pressure it should be because of the sealant you put into it. it's possible you may have damaged the tpms from the fix-a-flat as well.

I didnt just want to tell them turn the light off i have 4 brand new tires; i thought maybe the fix a flat jacked up the tpms in that rear driver tire. I have 40psi all the way around and it hasn't lost air yet...

No large under tray that covers radiator is still there by its lonesome without its 2 friends on left/right. As for the tpms could discount tire fix that or do i need to buy the sensor and bring it with me when i go up there? I have a full warranty on my tires as well.
