The front bumper i bought painted from a mazda dealer but they have gone out of business since then. The side skirts i bought primered also but at parkmazdaakron.com the rear lip i purchased painted at BUYMAZDAPARTS.COM The side skirts cost 200$ for paint and install.

I was just glad that i got them before they were completely out. I would've been super mad if i was stuck with the knock off kit.


And my car is lowered with tein springs, why do people keep commenting that i need to lower it?!?!

did you preload the springs?
Not gonna lie, I actually think, with the color you have and the gray trim on the kit, the OEM wheels look great! Even the spoiler is alright (no need for MS wing). Now, just space those wheels out, and I think you'll have a very clean 8

I have no idea if they were pre loaded, I had the dealership install them. I'm not sure if I want it any lower cuz I have enough issues trying to get it on lifts to do any work on the car. One place couldn't get it on their rack to do an alignment on it.

I'm going for a clean look, I don't want the car to be "over the top"

He has the MS all around body kit already. If you lower it some more, he will scrape over speed bumps and such. Just get coilovers if you want to adjust the height, you know.

Yeah, I barely make it over a speed bump without scraping. If it's a steep transition on a road or driveway, etc. then i can't even go up and have to park on the street or find a different route.

I was thinking of getting the megan or tein basic coil over kits.
