Thank you for the advice!!

Should I sand them down first? or just clean them thoroughly then apply the shower tread?

No need to sand

Whoah!!!! Scarlet Snow's so pretty, doc! Grats!!!
On chin trouble, this might make it less painful...

ID the likely scrape points. Clean those areas under thoroughly, then final rub w/ moisturizer-free isopropyl alcohol. Overlay the 3M Tub & Shower Tread on those areas. Make em as stealth as possible. Should these patches eventually get scuffed, rinse & repeat.
I've long used that product for scuff protection on step boards & sills. It's tough & when stuck properly, they cling well. Look at my hobo application of this as scuff plates...

Hope this helps, doc! Happy Motorin'!!!!

wow!! thanks for sharing your MacGyver idea. will try.

Baka di ko na ibenta to. Mahal na mga oto nun dahil sa excise tax.

I was surprised that even with the 18" rims the ride is still good.

Dealership drilled 4 holes. A bit too late but still happily relocated....


If you fear the drill, please advise your dealership ahead.

Sanding on the underbelly? Only necessary if the rough patches have ridges that will compromise adhesion. Otherwise, it'll only require some thorough cleaning & iso alcohol(no moisturizer) rub down prior to sticking, doc.

The scratches were really deep.... Was going down a ramp wherein the receiving road was also an incline (did that make sense, hard to describe) even if I was nearly parallel to the receiving road, the driver's side of the skirt still made contact with the pavement thus my dilemma... I'll just try cleaning it out then stick the 3m shower tread and see where it goes. Thanks for the help!!!

AnytiM3, good doc. Don't worry about em too much. We all have battlescars...what doesn't kill makes us stronger.

Relocated!

Just sharing, wala pa man yung LTO plate, dinikit ko muna yung temporary plate hahaha
Ganda ng grill ng facelift M3.

Salamat sir Travs!

Yup the 2017 facelift looks much better than the "buck tooth" look of the old one.

Totally agree. FL grille is too pretty to be obstructed by the plate! Grats & thanks, happycall sir!

I joined the Mazda 3 Skyactive Club in facebook (sali ka na rin sir!). One of the members was selling it then.

Hi Im new to the group, thought Id share my M3 as well. This is my first M3 and all i can say is that im really happy with it. We also have a subaru forester but the M3 is now my favorite. Glad i got this instead of the honda civic.

Hi sir, I'm planning to buy an auto and M3 is in my choices but may I know how much it cost? You may PM me if you want it to be private.I will appreciate your answer.I'm still newbie

Thank you sir travajante for the plate relocator!!!

And yep just a few days in my garage with a few scrapes on the chin already (what a pain!)....

Hi sir, did you request to change the color of the side mirrors? is there any additional fee? I'm still newbie sorry for that question haha
