anyone make flares/overfenders for the SA/FB?

i recently saw pics of one, and i must say those flares are gorgeous, the ones with the exposed rivets that are capable of covering HUGE 8-10" wide wheels. price really isnt an option here. anyone know of a company that makes them? im guessing nobody here in the states makes them, and im not talking about those silly little ebay flares that extend an inch or less and have to be molded on, these will be trimmed to fit, and riveted on with exposed rivets, just like on the real thing.

not sure but i think you could get a set from mazdaspeed, if you are a racer that has run at least 2 races in the last 6 months and have the time slips to prove it, they will sell to you.

cpracing.ca makes some pretty nice fender flares. I don't know if they're as big as you're talking about, but if you wanna go really big you could go with a wide body kit from mariahmotorsports.com.

Talking list of body kits

Atomic aero in Saitama prefecture Japan: really nice overfender kit front and rear in thin (race) or thick (street) 1200.00 check for shipping

Mariah Motor sports full overfender kit, but the front looks kinda strange check with david grimes here on the forum, I think he has a set

Select maz in Kangaroo land has a really smoking set of race type overfenders and there like 500 for a set, with 500 or so for shipping there email is info@selectmaz.com.au

there are many more, but a search of the the FAQs and a general serch of the forum will bring you many more.

FD= people who think they are special
FC = people who want to be special
SA's + FB's are those who are truly divine

(In a Jim carrey voice) "and on the 7th day he looked in upon the Hiroshima Factory, and said Let there be light" and because they couldn't speak egrish they didn't put enough lubber under the car, so we enthusiasts made overfenders"

sorry if I offended any politically correct types

NOT!

Smile yep yep

I forgot about the Cp's sorry dude,

the Maz Select look like the CP's just a little more aggressive, I think they are called the "moffet type C" don't know what that means. but they look slick as can be.

CP's look sick bt they are just nasty to high priced. They better be carbon fibre for the price they're asking...

well i got the ideas from a model kit box i saw for sale on ebay, the box top said "SA22C Savanna RX-7" and the overfenders were HUGE. they were much larger than the CP Racing version, and i will be contacting those people out in kangaroo land here in a couple days to see if they can supply some pics. i didnt realize anyone even made these, i thought it was just a dream. as of right now i cant order through mazdaspeed/mazda comp, dont know how long that will last though. hopefully someone will post pics of exactly the type of kit i am talking about.

yup selectmaz out in Australia has the overfenders im talking about, at the bottom of their "Bodykits" page are the big ones, i emailed them already and hopefully they can give me a price sometime this week. that site is amazing. probably very expensive, but very amazing too!

This is my high school auto teacher's race RX-7, and I believe he uses flares from a 240Z. No exposed rivets, but I bet that's easy to get done especially if money is no object.
