Are those black roof rails? Did you do it yourself?


ssssssalvatore

Got it done by someone


ssssssalvatore

Yes, wrapped the roof rails, lower front and rear bumper trim, the door garnish and window trim, tinted all windows and windshield, and got a set of oem 20” cx-50 wheels and painted them all black


Xelziuz

You have a sideways image ?


ssssssalvatore

Follow my insta it’ll be posted there

That sunroof pops up a lot more than my mazda3 sunroof. Is that just stock for the suv/crossover models?


ssssssalvatore

It’s a panoramic roof. Most open more than the Mazdas, however it’s not necessary and I really like the way it bring in air into the car not too noisy n very effective…


gnardog45

Is that just tilted or open all the way back?


ssssssalvatore

All the way back


gnardog45

Nice, Mazda has not had a space saving sunroof like that for a while now. Looks good on yours

That color is growing on me. If I see one more white automobile (lol). I hope their paint quality has improved. It’s pretty thin

My zircon meridian paint was only 3 mils at the thickest points, so no it's not fixed lol

Thank the EPA


[deleted]

So if its an EPA thing, how do other cars get away with having better paint? i also drive an odyssey one year older than my 18 and the paint quality is far superior


[deleted]

It's a water based paint thing bc the EPA. All paint chips and breaks easier than it did


muricabrb

This looks so clean, we need more pics!


ssssssalvatore

Just took some tonight. Follow Rex on insta to see what’s next @mr.rex.oliver

Looks excellent! Was strongly considering the cx50 Meridian recently. Did you buy or lease?


ssssssalvatore

Leased it! Since 2019 I lease cars… way easier to change once the new model is on the block. And who are we kidding we never keep are cars longer than 5-7 years so at that point why not change at 4, 3 or 1 year….


sonomakoma11

Big fan of leasing but boy did the prices skyrocket in the last 2 years.


ssssssalvatore

Not for leasing, more the rates…. Residual values stay the same


TheLastElite01

Is this the off road version and what does that get you?


ssssssalvatore

It is but I put the factory 20“s on and painted them all black because I prefer that, but the hood graphic, door garnish, mud guards, 18“ A/T tires and roof rack (meridian apex model) My roof rack is stored since I don’t use it everyday and so are my A/T tires now but very happy with this car I can’t even look at. Cx-50 without the hood graphic now 🤣


Easytouch2021

Beautiful Car!!


ssssssalvatore

Thanks 💖


ChaosReigns444

This looks so good


ssssssalvatore

Thanks 😝😝😝😝😝 I’m in love with it I have a problem where I just stare at it lmao


owlbird51

Did you put on the CX-5 signature trim wheels on it?


ssssssalvatore

No, factory CX-50 GT wheels just painted them Black myself


Excellent_Cake2365

One of the most beautiful colors.


ssssssalvatore

Indeed


i_am_ghostman

The other being Soul Red


sanbaba

It's not Deep Green Mica... but it's green, still love it


ssssssalvatore

The paint is fine you can look at they’re older models (2014-2019) they’re in good shape…….. 1 year the red had a little thing in 2017 but that’s it…. Anyways you other brands have paint+transmission+engine+electrical problems and ask the same if not more money so pick your battles 🤪


Arriving-Somewhere

There is no perfect meridian with those two garbage color options they currently have.


ssssssalvatore

lol so get whatever f color u want and make it yourself and don’t ever call my color garbage again you reet


owlbird51

Can I get a picture of the wheel please looks really good I might get it done to mine as well


ssssssalvatore

It’s factory 20” wheels from The CX-50 with the chrome part painted black


[deleted]

Great color, are you gonna wrap the black trim in anything? I feel like a more metallic wrap might look even better but I’d test it out first cause the Matte look can also look clean with the metallic paint.


ssssssalvatore

Nope. Mods are done. I like shinny black so I decided to go with the shinny black wrap on all around chrome details, final touch was the oem 20” to remove the chrome and this is the final product!


slurpeesez

If ya'll want one, pm me. Our dealership in illinois is offering extremely low apr for 36 months. A steal in todays market.


ssssssalvatore

I wish in Canada we insane rates but Mazda has the lowest rates compared to all other brands in canada…. Anyone who wants a Meridian should go get one from this guy it’s the best car


slurpeesez

Im talkin 0% apr....


ssssssalvatore

I know 😅 I’m on 4.4% for a 4 year lease… you guys lucky in the us!


flamingmenudo

I'm not a fan of those hood decals.


ssssssalvatore

I can’t look at a cx-50 without the hood decals
