Plastic Body Clips

Any of the guru's know where i can pick up a few of those body clips. (like the ones in the wheel arches, with the philips head)

Noticed a couple missing. Is it a Mazda job or would an accessory shop have them?

Less than $1 each. I have some spare at home.

Wheel arches and front lips are different. Make sure you know which ones are have lost and tell the dealer

Yes, I can! I go to Crookie remember - they're notorious for not doing smaller things the first time.

In fact, I have to say that on my new tyres and after a service, car is feeling Awesome! When was the last flash?

Back on topic, might just knick down to repco/autobarn and do the clips myself.
