I don't know what the bad reviews on the Diamond Brite would be, I had it put on my MX5. So far I have no stone chips at all and I never have to polish the car. Just wash it, all the dirt comes off easily and it shines like new. No polishing means more time for driving.

I bit the bullet and paid out for a Mazda spare. Not cheap but couldn't be bothered with chasing round the Internet especially as it is a new car it seemed a bit pointless buying a new car then starting to cut corners. I have since bought a full size spare which as mentioned on here fits a treat. You just lose a bit of boot depth. So now I have a "spare spare". I think I will have to buy another CX-3 to fit around the spare.
Car sold - but still following Mazda.

The Diamond Brite is expensive seeing as the kit only costs a fraction of the price. Most of the cost is the labour. Lots of suckling through the teeth normally means getting it for half price.

Just been very lucky and got a genuine Mazda 16inch spare wheel,jack and bolt for £100 off ebay and just need the wheel brace and trunk boards to complete the full set.

The Diamond Bright, has to be applied Correctly to have any longevity, which means a full decontamination, prior to application.
My sister in law had it on her vehicle, it was a quick wash and applied one hour later the your car is ready madam.
Six Months later it doesn't even bead, total waste of money unless you trust the valeters to do a good job, think you can buy it on line for less than £40.

It does come with a lifetime guarantee so I suggest she goes back to get it applied correctly or ask for a full refund, providing she has followed the care instructions and not run it through the car wash. As I say mine has saved a lot of time, effort and of course polish etc. and looks like new.DaveG wrote: ↑Thu Jun 21, 2018 9:20 pm The Diamond Bright, has to be applied Correctly to have any longevity, which means a full decontamination, prior to application.

i did a quick detail on our cx3 ( detailing is my hobby) and my son who bought new from a main dealer had his new car covered in overspray from another car being 'repiared' by chips away.. the dealer paid for a full detail , he had a Gtechniq coating, admit it looks great on Metallic Red..
One of those annoying cyclist, who happens to also drive a CX3 SPORT NAV IN ETERNAL BLUE on the odd occasion ... The CX3 has been a pleasure to drive but it's time to move on. ...NOW DRIVING A MAZDA CX30 GT SPORT-JAN 2020
Having been sat around in my garage for a week she was all dusty, so gave her a quick rinse. None of the door frames were very clean!
Have just contacted The Wheel Shop who tell me that the 18In spacersaver they have for an CX5 will not fit the CX3. I am sure the dealer told me it would; who is correct?
Also
Can anyone tell me how to tone down the bleeps on the front parking sensors, not off completely, as they are very loud.
Cheers
