Where to find a passenger fender liner?

My passanger fender liner has been removed and has been since i purchased the car in August. Will this mess anything up in the engine bay? If so can someone direct me to a place to buy a cheaper one? I went to Mazda and they quoted $154 bucks for it . . . thanks!!

OEM is the only option i know of for these. Call Ray Crowe @ Malloy Mazda 1-888-533-3400 I seem to remember he had a speacial going on these a while back. Not sure on the prices but he will smash your local dealers price in the nuts Call him.

It will mess things up in the engine bay. The fender liner protects the engine compartment from road grime, water, etc.

OEM is your only choice.

You might want to try www.mazda-parts-dealer.com They usually have pretty good prices. I'm sure theres other websites out there you can try also.

Shoot, just find a good used one. PM Fritz Flynn and see if he has one - if not, post a Wanted ad up. I can't imagine it would be that hard to find a good used one.

ive been running without them since i got my car. no issues other than the fact that the engine gets dirty quickly.

Its hard to find a used set, I found one ONCE and bought them. They sat in my friends garage for a month while i was away and when i came back to install them his dad had thrown them away thinking they were trash (along with my ac system)

ill be calling ray as soon as spring hits for another set i guess...

When I get my car repainted in a year or so I'm going to to have aluminum ones made so rubbing won't be such a big issue. When I get mine done I'll let you guys know so if the guy is willing to do a bunch ya'll can get them as well.

I need a set of both linings too - it just doesnt seem safe since there is a lot of exposed wiring that can get damaged
