Just putting out a post to see what would you all like to see made or made better for the Mazda 6?

Lower grill inserts that aren't gutter guard from Home Depot, or some billet grill thing off ebay that attaches with zip ties.

A grill, similiar to those by maunfacturers like Silvia Parts, that actually follows the contour of the hood.

Oddly enough, mud guards for those with the sports/appearance package.

For those of us with the P.O.S. cloth seats: covers that actually fit, like OEM... that do not look like burlap potato sacks with a headrest.

A cheaper alternative to CPE that does not cause CEL-related issues.

I wouldn't mind a replacement spoiler that would bolt on in place of the factory one. At certain angles it looks weird. Nothing too big and floppy though.

I kinda like the Euro spoiler. I'm sure alot of people with base packages wouldn't mind a new spoiler.

A new replacement for the BLACK RACING LIP!!! I want one very badly but I would pay extra for one made in Urethane. Heck, I'd even take the Fiberglass one if anyone is willing to make it again.

Crack the ECU and release a handheld flash tuner.

Corksport · 02-02-2006, 10:14 PM

Looks like a decent list so far, anyone else out there have any thoughts?

socal714guy · 02-06-2006, 11:31 PM

how about a CF lip!

VTblack6 · 02-07-2006, 07:54 AM

a body kit with full front and rear bumpers that is some where around the ath or mps in terms of stance. kinda like an oe sport kit but more aggressive.

something for the center console to make it a bit higher. during freeway cruising would be nice to have something that i could actually rest my arm on without contorting my back like i have, or will get, scoliosis. it would be great if it were designed like the accord or civic one where it slides forward toward the dash and back so when you needed room to shift it wouldn't get in the way.

floor mats that have a little lip that curves up a bit so pine needles don't slip off the edge and get ground in on the carpet beneath. yeah i know, vacuum my car, but with these, i wouldn't need to as often

window vent shades for the side windows that fit the hatchback.

glovebox organizer? it'd be cool if it had adjustable compartments like i've seen in some camcorder bags using velcro to move the walls. i think i'll be giving this one a shot myself. shouldn't be all that hard.

turn signals on the rearview mirrors that actually fit

re: the seat cover issue - check out the ones by wet okole. they fit and look great, but are pretty spendy: i think they are like 250 for the front or rear seats. and they do let your airbags work. and they are waterproof. but 250? hmmmm...
