side skirts too low
hey guys i was wondering, for those of you who have side skirts on your 8, are the dealers able to use their hydraulic lifts to service your car or when you go buy new rims and tires? i was planning on putting up the mazdaspeed skirts on mine but don't know if it would be too low and go pass the metal railing under the car.

They should be able to yes. I had mazdaspeed skirts on my car at one point in time and the dealer would know what to do without damaging them. But I also know of someone who had their mazdaspeed skirts broken by the dealer because they used the wrong points and the lift posts crushed the skirt. What they will probably do is either drive the car onto pre-ramps or get it in place and use a standard jack to raise the car enough to swing the lift posts underneath.

but yeah alright it seems that it wouldnt be TOO much of a problem. i'm just curious as to why mazda didn't take this into consideration when they designed the skirts or what not. it wouldve been easier and less of a hassle if the metal railings under the car would be a bit bigger wouldn't it?...

Don't lower your car too much and this would never ever happen.
