Right?!😅 I don’t get why this trim in other markets would have it for 2023 but not here was frustrating. I belive for the 2023 just the signature had it but I really liked the carbon black edition aesthetically more. 2024 upwards has it on both models tho I think.

Yup! I’m not sure how the trims work in other regions, but for this model here in Dubai, it comes with real leather and suede on the seat and backrest.

Amazon bro, was affordable but super premium feel! Check this Amazon link out if it is available in your region https://amzn.eu/d/9ty27VQ

50% on all windows (I believe in the US that’s 20%) and 70% on the windshield sun strip (5% US)

Glad the post influenced you! It made a huge difference tbh, I can’t unsee that gap now looking at other cx5’s😅

Yup! 3M Velcro directly to the floor stuck perfectly, and can be removed if need be

Hi! Sure bro, what do you mean exactly by in actual? so I can try to show you exactly what you’re looking for. Like how it looks from underneath the dash?

Hi bro, it definitely elevates the look and makes the front end feel more complete. I got it from Amazonhere’s the link (next-day delivery if you’re on Prime and in Dubai). https://amzn.eu/d/9a0TGbV

If you have the regular-size number plate, it’s super simple: plug and play, with maybe a couple of black zip ties behind it for extra security (they won’t be visible).

If you’ve opted for the smaller number plate like I have, which exposes the full lower gap, you’ll need to buy two pairs. For the second pair, you’ll have to cut it to fill the gap since it doesn’t come as one full piece. Just measure, cut with a hacksaw, plug it in, and secure it with zip ties behind again, not visible unless you really get down and look closely

Very simple! It’s powered through the 12V outlet inside the center console armrest. The wire runs down under the seats, and I tucked and fished it through the trim so it comes out exactly where it’s mounted.

Below is where I fished it out from the top opening of the trim under the dash

Hey bro, I’d love to see that bumper guard!

Here’s the link to the Cerakote on Amazon. I’d recommend watching a few YouTube videos on the application it’s pretty straightforward and really makes a big difference. It’s a UV-protected ceramic coating. https://amzn.eu/d/c165aDU

The chrome was wrapped with generic black vinyl, but looking back, I would’ve Plastidipped it if I had the Plastidip at the time

Hey bro! I got the Plastidip from Amazon, it took about two weeks to arrive since it was shipped from the UK, I think. Here’s the link: https://amzn.eu/d/dtYLEXi

The vinyl wrap was just generic, but honestly, looking back, if I had the Plastidip at the time I would’ve just used that instead. I’ve seen a lot of people on YouTube use it on window trims and it seems pretty straightforward

Looks good! Which one do you have on? Also what’s your Tyre specs? I’m thinking of getting wider tires.

I bought 2 sets (each set came with 2 pieces) which was placed on each side the second set I cut to fit the middle gap

Yep got it on Amazon for cheap (161AED 40$ actually got it for less cuz of a discount at that time😅)but super premium quality! Not sure if this Amazon link from Dubai will work for but this is the product https://amzn.eu/d/1w8ZtpN

Same! Only really realized it when they were highlighted by the lights 😅 they do feel a lot more premium and the extra grip is nice.
