Arrow f/r mud guards

does anyone have pics of a car with front and rear mud guards from a few angles? im trying to decide on them. any downsides (aerodynamically i mean)?

also, did mazda ever make any "OEM" sideskirts (US or JDM)?? if so, and you have pictures youd like to share i would appreciate it. thanks, heath

They look pretty good for "mudflaps". They definitely protect the paint, with wide or R-compound rubber they are an absolute MUST but a good idea in any case.

I just bought a set of these brand new from Mazda. It has holes but did not come with any screws? Does anyone know how they are installed?
