just wondering if anyone knows what brand these are?
i brought them secondhand and there are no markings on them.
they are 30mm wider than stock fenders.i have seen simaler items but none with the same vents.
cant wait to see them on my car!

sorry about pics

do the vents do anything more than look cool?

if the vents were connected to the engine bay, it could help circulate air faster.

but they are not so unless you start cutting sheet metal those vents are just for looks

Really? What about clearing out hot air from the brakes to make room for cooler air?

That area is not connected to the brake area. Have a look under your wheel well.

They are 30mm wider than the stock fenders, the stock wheelwell cover doesn't go out that far. In theory these are for track cars with no wheelwell cover.

Personally, I'd go for making air outtakes for the engine bay, and fiberglass your wheel well covers to fill in the void. Your car already has an air "scoop" for the brakes from the factory, and I don't think that the air has all that much trouble getting out of the wheel well once its in there. More airflow in engine bay = good things.

the vents are just for looks i think.the reason i brought them is because there wider, witch means i can run wider rims/tyers up front.
has anyone seen these fenders before?

They don't have to be, though Bust out your creative self and make some ductwork to get heat out of the bay.

where did you get them? looks interesting and something I might get. 30mm in the front is more than I'm looking for tho. Do they have a 20mm? I'll probably cut the sheetmetal to vent hot air from the engine too.

i got them from a mazda parts dealer, imported from japan as a one off.i have know idea where to find them again or if they *** in a smaller size.
thanks for the ideas i didnt think of venting hot air from the engine that will help with temps alot!

This is what it looks like behind your fenders. With 20mm fenders, you can fit 245s in front.

do you have these fenders?i would be very interested to some pics

I think mine are M-Sport 20mm fenders. They only have one vent. Take care when installing them. They most likely will take a bit to put on; I worked them from the center of the fender to the top and bottom rather than trying to pull on them. I tightened the bolts a little at a time in a pattern to minimize the cracking of the gel coat.

haha if you look at the pic you can see a drain tube, so those vents can be used to remove heavy rain water from you car faster!!! lightweight cars own jooo (haha jk) hmm i like my stock fenders personally ... i would only buy ones that are lighter while keeping the same body lines.

thanks for the advice 37fc3s defanitly dont want them cracking.
love the car one of the cleanest ive seen! IMO. do you have any pics looking towards the bonet

37FC3S

Thanks. The car still needs paint as you can see from the front. Here are a couple more shots.

no sure how much lighter the fiber glass fenders are than stock. Can't be much because the stockers dont weight anything on their own.

37FC3S

I did it to fit the wider tires. I think they are about the same weight. I would look some place else for saving weight.

from looking at the front on pics my fenders are alot differnt.Yours flair out (witch looks cool) and mine has a larger top section witch i like also.
someone must have seen these before.
I wonder if they are one offs?

sleeperfc
