? about installing factory appearance package

I think there was a thread for this once; however, I can't find it.

Please give me the link or can someone explain (preferably with pics) how to install the front air dam, side and rear aero flares.

Thanks for your help.

I've found at least the MazdaSpeed instructions (even if written in japanese) are pretty comprehensive. Do you have the parts and they didn't come with instructions?

no metal has to be cut when applying the OEM aide aero flares. You do have to drill 4 holes, and you do have to cut a rubber piece on the underbody, but no metal has to be cut.

I bought the parts off somebody who is upgrading his body kit. I don't have instructions or templates.

Does anyone have a copy of the templates that I can buy off them?

Also, any tips/suggestions on a DIY install would be very helpful.

Thanks
