THANKS TO GOBLUES.. FOR FINDING ME THE PART NUMBERS

Do you have any "before" pictures?? I'd like to see some comparison of with/without the rack.

How much did it cost you?

EDIT: n/m, found it in the other thread. Oh well. :D

How did you mount the channel covers ???
I am trying to remove my side strips also abnd I even got the channel covers from Mazda
After 3 trys.
But no hardware or clips to hold them down .
I even asked they said NO.
Now what.
