I cant remember the brand, but I have seen small mud flaps for the 3 that I thought looked good. Any one know of where I can get some for 2010 3? I think they give the car that autoX look. opinions?

i have some on the front...they won't fit in the rear unless you have an I model. they are $48'ish from mazdastuff.com. very easy to install if you do not have the side ground effect.

Rallyarmor makes the best ones I've seen, but I don't think they're available for the 2010 yet. You may want to contact them directly: www.rallyarmor.com

fyi mazdastuff.com is run by a mazda dealer in Texas so they are OEM parts. those mudguards they sell are made by mazda.

If you read the other posts, someone else already suggested that. They won't work because he has a 3s.

Thanks guys...Im surprised there not more popular. I like the look they add to the car and they keep all the road grime from spraying every where.

Rally Armor has universal ones..I just emailed them to see about the 2010 fit..


update- they said they dont have them for a 2010 yet but the universals would fit just fine.

I got the OEM splash guards from the dealer. You don't even see them, they blend in with the tire....But, they are very functional, keep tar and junk off the lower panel.

I'm not sure how the mudflaps/splash guards install on a 3, but on most other cars where the plastic of the flap/guard meets the fender it slowly rubs the paint. Over time it will rub right through to the bare metal, and leave a great place for salt to gather and rust to take over.

Not if you buy oem, this is not the first car I got factory splash guards, they don't move, they are bolted on solid.

the rears will only fit the I models. this is as close to a pic of them as i can get. i've never actually taken a pic with them as the focus.
