Im trying to contact Autokonexion to see if we can get a group buy going. There fender flares are the same as the ones from Racing Lifestyle. Check out this link http://www.autokonexion.com/miata-ca...1f3tg2s5siten1. Im planning on getting the fiberglass ones cause there only around $250.

I'll ask about having some vented fenders sent with our next shipment.
Always seems to be the case. We got a "carbon" hood for Philips Miata before he sold it... Weighed more than the stock aluminum hood.

Yea it funny but I always hear carbon this and that but really unless it's laid 100% with correct materials you not going to have a lightweight item. I go and have been since 1980s down with old school fiberglass mat resin and gelcoat... It can be very light and very strong , oh but carbon LOOKS so racer !! Lol

I have the Miata flares on order now.

This will be a very nice mild flare.

Oh sure, back in 08, I eluded to the desire to put flares on and dump the hell outta my hatch, and boy, did I get flamed. Seems like the community is finally coming around to the idea.

Guess I was ahead of the times =p
