Folks, the RX8's Rear Fenders have some parrelogram shaped "cut outs"....at least I think they are cut outs located in the front section of the rear fender's flared out section....what are these for? Why did Mazda place them there?

 

Those aren't cutouts, they are rock guards. Look again

 

Hmm ok, they don't get hit by much do they.

 

no they dont

 

i hate it becaseu wax always gets stuck around the edges of it and since my car is black you can see it

 

stay away from them then? i have also found running my finger nail down the side of them gets the wax off for the most part

 

i have no problems getting the wax out of them...use your finger nail..

 

I use a Q-tip on some 3m wax removal
works every time.Guaranteed !!

 

Better yet, use an old tooth brush!!!! then wipe the residual dust.
