In Florida, I had 5 windows tinted and a windshield strip for $165 including tax. I tinted the darkest Florida allows, which is not that dark. The rear are slightly darker than the front. Because the 5 is car based and not truck based, I could not tint as dark as I wanted. The law in Florida is 15% back windows and 28% front. SUV and other Multi Purpose Vehicles can go much darker and there is a medical clause that allows even deeper if you can not tolerate sunlight. Would advise checking state laws.

My rear windows are 15% and you can still see through from outside. That is the darkest Florida allows or I would have went darker.

So I went to Med Center Mazda and I ordered the rear bumper plate, the trunk liner(soft) and the cargo net.
The cover is vinyl with a canvas underside. It is gray and it has openings to leave hooks exposed. It works.
The net is another story. I did not even try it. Unfortunately the instructions show to hook the top to the third row seats. SO you have to have both of them in the same position, up or down. I thought that they come with something that fit in the cargo cover guides, to form a net "wall" and not depend on the seats. I want to use the car with one seat up and the other down. I guess the net will stay under one of the seats for future use.
The bumper plate has four long and narrow strips of double sided adhesive tape, following closely the perimeter.
The end

I'll have to check on the rear bumper guard. I ordered it when I got the car this summer and they told me it was on "quality hold" and I verified that with Mazda. Now it sounds like they are available.

I had my 2010 Mazda5 tinted, all windows except the driver and passenger front windows, illegal in Cali, this cost me $285. It looks nice, couple of things I need to take back to the guy for, some small lint on one window and he needs to trim some tint it's folded. Other than that I am happy with it and I think it makes my car look sportier.
I love my 5 btw.
