Anyone have driver's and passenger side fender for an NA???? Red would be great but doing some paint work anyway so any color will work. Also was wonder if anyone has had any luck with Certifit parts on Miatas. Fenders are only $83 bucks but I've had fitment problems with some of thier stuff in the past. Thanks, Legend.

I have a pair of red ones. They're neeeearly flawless. The driver's side has a slight crease dent that you have to look closely to see. I'll try to get pictures tomorrow night when I get home. I had planned on keeping them as spares for my BRG, but I'll get a pair that's black or something closer to matching before I get it repainted this summer, especially if someone could really use these ones. The paint will need buffing. It's not shiny, but it's not faded like most early reds. PM me if you want them.

My experience with aftermarket fenders is as follows...
Sometimes they fit, sometimes not so well. Often the body indents do not line up properly...but sometimes they do. Sometimes the mounting holes etc have to be worked over to fit and then maybe not the best. Occasionally some fit fine. Overall you cant count on ONE standard of quality, but theyre cheap, good enough for a beater or track car. Even then, I will only use them if there are no used oem ones, my Miata body shop pals agree.

Yepo.. never said they weren't aftermarket.. Hard to get new factory part for a car that's been out of production for a few years:lol:

weird... when my car got hit a few years ago my insurance claimed to be unable to get new fenders from the dealership for my car. maybe they were just trying to say themselves a few bucks and instead.
