Yes, aluminum door sill plates are available, try Mazdaformance, http://www.mazdaformance.com/rx7.htm they have them listed as an accessory. For the aluminum passenger floor plate, those were never available on US-spec cars so you'll probably want to go through a j-spec importer.

Here is a picture after I just had them chrome plated. There normally is a tin RX7 lettering in gold color - but I did not think that would go well with my color so I painted the lettering in dark grey.





Wow, an Italian driver with a RX7 - frightening combination! I was in Malta last summer and my sister's (who worked in Malta) friend's boy friend is Italian - and all that I have heard about Italians being crazy drivers is so true! I thought I was going to die a horrible death when he took us across the island in his car... I've never been so scared riding in a car in my life, hehe.

Click on "Accessories." I purchased a set of these a few months ago after checking around. I found Mazdaformance's price to be $20-25 less than my local dealer's. The shipping was quick and when I had a problem understanding the precise size of the holes to drill due to the poorly interpreted from Japanese OEM instructions, their assistance was quick and helpful.

You can get floor mats here:

http://www.mazdatrix.com/in-mats.htm

I ordered two sets of them last week. They don't have RX-7 embroidered on them.

Email them, they might also have or can get the door sills/scuff plates..

If you want, I can pick you up a set if you can't find someone else that will ship overseas. Mazdaformance is 20 miles from where I live, though they insist on shipping (even though I live in the same area) as that they are worried that walk in business might hurt thier regular dealership parts business. (they operate in an office behind a Mazda dealership).

If you can convince them to let me sneak in the back door to pick up, hehe, I would be more then happy to do so for you.

E-mail me if you would like me to do so.
