factory mud flaps.....found 'em!
I called the local Mazda dealer today and asked if there was any way to still purchase the factory stone guards/mud flaps for a 3rd Gen and the guy just said..... "Sure, what color do you need?"
I was surprised, and then I told him to order me a front and rear set and gave him the old credit card number....too cool!
$85 for the front pair, $89 for the rear pair.....

You better stop that order and make sure they know what you are talking about. You want the (I guess fiberglass) pieces which are molded on and look kinda like a mini body kit, right? I doubt that is what the dealership thinks you mean. There are also plain ol ugly plastic mud gaurds that are stuck on for the sole purpose of gaurding mud.
This is true as far as I know. Something you might want to check into.

i think he is talking about the plain black mud guards.
Im talking about the R1/R2 mini body kit, where can i get that from!! i love that sleek look, and those little tings are real subtle and do a lot for the car.

I grilled the guy at the parts counter to make sure he knew what he was talking about, though maybe that is an oxymoron....
But I said I wanted the molded, form fitting color matched ones and he said, yep...yep...yep....
I guess we will see.......

factory mudguards
$89 per pair is a good price. The price gouging dealer in Hickory, NC charged me $135 a pair. Molded urethane, pre-painted to factory exterior colors, a dealer installed option for all models. Sorry- no Yosemite Sam graphics are available.

I love those too. I never said I didn't. But to my knowledge Mazda also made real mudgaurds. Black pieces which could be put on to protect against mud. They were very ugly and I would never put them on my car. If I can get my digi to work, a guy around here has a set of them. I have also seen the pieces which are on your car, and BAJAMAN, if that is what you are getting for that price, you may be the organizer of a group buy.

If anybody needs some red front ones, $35 + ship and they're yours. Looks nice, small black dots on the underside, where you will obviously never see them. No mounting hardware (it's still on my car )

as the "goodfella" said -- they were an option. i remember when i first got the car back in 93, i had priced these out at the dealer, and the price originally quoted was about what the dealer had quoted me back then -- about $85/pr. i haven't checked lately, though....

$80 to $90 for each pair of color-matched mud guards sounds about right. I have both the front and rear sets. I was told that the are no longer available in CYM. And they are pretty hard to source right now. I tried to order a set of CYM for my friend and it wasn't to be found. I think they only had Montego Blue.
