Hey guys, I'm new to the forum. Just joined 2 weeks ago, this is my first post... I rubbed my car up against a guard rail today. Bad damage to the passenger fender, rear quarter panel and light scratches on the passenger side of the front bumper. I was just wondering, wheres the best place to...

So let's spread the love 0:) for what may be considered the most annoying interior parts in our vehicles. Also this can be your chance to vent about it :laugh2: I love and hate the glossy piano panels, they look good but scratch so easily! :argh 1: You are more than welcome to post pics...

Hi guys, I'm just wondering if there's anyone here who knows how to remove scratches on the said panels? Particularly the ones by the shifter

I think Mazda's philosophy that lightening the vehicle materials is vastly flawed. I did not know how cheap the metal was before signing the finance papers. I went to my local Toyota and Hyundai dealership after hours to see if it's just me of if in fact the SkyActiv body panels are as thin a...

What are you cleaning your interior plastic panels with?

I am in the process of putting on an amp for a single sub and have the door panels off. I am about to tap into the rear speaker wire (which is tiny and going to be a pain) when I thought, "Why am I doing this?" Isn't there a place to tap in that is along the wire route and I won't have to...
