Wow, nice choice. I have yet to see a Mazda5 with a sharkfin yet.

Doesn't Perfecto (or one of the other 5 owners lurking around the boards) have HIDs? That's a mod! Grin

I can do it in 10 mins, just switch from my 3 to the 5. Smiley

Can I just swap the wheels(from my 3 to 5, or 5 to 3) and call mod too.  Evil I'm seriously want to upgrade the brake pads on the 5 once I found a good set on the 3.

You can add an air freshener and call that a mod too if you want. Grin You should take the 5 autocrossing.

To 5 owners...

Where did you get the HID install? w/ DRL bypass or independent fog light.

I can't do it myself since I hate to screw up things...
Hope that I can find a good deal or shop for this mod.

Thanks.

The HID install is fairly straight forward. Just plug and play.  With the DRL bypass or independent fog mod, you'll have to search around.  But there is one place that has the bypass harness.

http://www.thexenonstore.com/

They sell the harness that by passes the DRL.  Our forum sponsor xenon expert also sells a number of HID kits.  There are some reviews on different kits on the board.

Tried to get my wife on board with shark fin, but she didn't like it.? Sad 

For the record I don't have HID's (yet).  Only things I've managed to do is get the foldable rear cargo "mat" and tinted the back windows 20%.

Hey there,  Also new to the forum and new to a Mazda5 GT in Brilliant Black. AND I'm also in richmond! Thought I would just intro myself and ask LYK where you got your tint done? and how much?  I tinting place had quoted me around $210 or $220 using Solar Gard tint.

Let us know!

Thanks,

....

HID
Sharkfin
Body Kit

Hi guys, another black5 GT owner here.
I'm planning to get HID as well, gonna do it same time with my friend who just got the new black civic si.
Just curious, what is sharkfin? Is it the antenna on those euro cars?

Talking about body kit, the only part I don't like is the rear end, I hope it looks better with mudguard.. Any pictures/links on the kits you plan to get?
