Why would you want mud flaps for your sports car? First, they're not mud flaps - although they'll help there as well. We call them "chip guards" because that's what they are. They'll keep your paint from getting chipped (or at least dramatically lessen the likelihood), which is especially important if you have big, fat rubber on your car. Not only that, but these aren't giant parachutes, aerodynamically speaking. Megachip used the lessons they learned from CFD (computational fluid dynamics) testing with their S2000 to ensure that these don't cause any undue drag. The length beyond the body and the curved edge aren't just there for aesthetics, they're there specifically to keep things as clean as possible - both dirt-wise and aero-wise.
The material (both US-sourced and US-cut) is rubber-based, so it's both tough and flexible. No fragile fiberglass here. The holes in the front guard are slotted to give some adjustability for wider tires, on the rear you can locate them - within reason - where is best for you, just be sure to follow the instructions as well.
If you have the factory appearance package on your car, be sure to choose the extended version so it lines up properly with the extra parts that you have.
The front is secured with the stock factory fasteners, the rear is secured with high quality (3M VHB 45 mil 5952) tape (and new fasteners for the extended version). Tape might sound scary, but this is the truly good stuff, and we include alcohol swabs and adhesive prep pads to ensure a permanent bond.
Excellent chip guards protect paint but don't affect aero
Easy installation, although the instructions could be a little better. These do not affect the aero or the look of my 2024 MX-5 with the appearance package. One thing to note, however, there is a pushpin type body clip included in the package that I could not make work. However, the one that was originally in the car worked just fine.

Instructions were easy to follow and install was painless. Can already tell a difference after a week of use and I look forward to having a cleaner car this winter!
