carbon fiber/fiberglass OEM mud-guards?

Any one interested in this?

I think i could get the price to be around $100-$150 for a set of 2(front or rear) depending if you want carbon or fiberglass.

Group buy?

We don't have any pics bc these aren't made yet, this thread just to see if theres interest in the product.

As for mounting will find a way to integrate the OEM mounting points.

There was another interest thread Here that didn't seem to go anywhere. There really aren't any OEM mounting points. Mazda used some kind of little clips to attach them. I wouldn't have any problems drilling a couple small holes to mount them, though some people might not want to 'deface' the inside of the fenders.

Are those clips available through mazda? If yes then we could provide them if not will find a different way to mount them.

clips can be had at any auto body supply place, technical name is a clip nut- either way you have to drill holes so a nut and bolt would achieve the same purpose as a clip

That depends on a lot of things, including the size and relative speed of the rocks but carbon fiber can be very durable.
