Noted and understood on the design iteration process. Looks nice! You can jot me down for a set on my NB as I'm re-evaluating some aero bits and always looking to continuously experiment.

Any idea how these would fit with (small) flares?

Unfortunately the flare is going to interfere with the fender louvers. The only way I can think of to make them work together would be to notch the flare where it overlaps the fender louver opening, and you'd lose the top/center bolt on the flare. Doable, but some extra work involved.

Side note, on my car with 15x10s, I had a flare in the back but never found a need for a flare in the front. With the rear portion of the front fender separated from the rest of the front fender, you can pull the wheel arch wayyy out to clear a big wheel/tire combo.

That's what I was thinking too, looking at your images. This setup fit without flares, I'd just always wanted a flared Miata.

Also interested in a GLTC pair, whether by cover plate or smaller vent, I am indifferent.

We're very close. Finished up the final details and costing for the vinyl templates at the end of last week. The last detail left is just concerning surface finish and coating. Samples of the louvers with a couple different finish methods went to anodizing yesterday, so I should have those back and a choice made soon.
SEMA is this week so I'll be consumed with that for a bit, but I think we can expect to be able to get group buy orders locked in some time next week, and everything is looking good for kits shipping well before the end of the year.

Whew! Got crazy busy last month so this took a little longer to put the final touches together, but THE GROUP BUY IS NOW OPEN.

Place your preorder on the website:
Singular Motorsports NA/NB Miata Fender Louvers **GROUP BUY** | Singular Motorsports

Getting in on the group buy gets you 20% off and discounted shipping. Aaaaand for Miataturbo.net folks ONLY I am bringing back the elusive, the mythical, the limited edition Singular Motorsports miataturbo edition decals in white/pink. For those who remember back to our very first group buy we ever did here, I cut these decals and included them with each GB order. It happened just that one time and never since... until now. So for just you guys here, when you place your order on the site include a note on the order during checkout that says "Miataturbo" and I'll include a decal with your order.

The group buy will run for two weeks or when we hit 30 units, whichever comes first. Giving you guys the first notice that it's up, and will announce it on the social medias in a day or two.
Production will start right after Christmas and kits should be shipping around the end of January.

WOOOT! Got my order in. But I forgot to include the “Miata turbo” part. Any way to still toss a sticker in there? 😅

Thank you for your orders!
I'm assuming all the orders that have come in so far have been Miataturbo folks since I've only announced it here, but so far nobody has remembered to add that note, so you're not alone
I've added the sticker note to both of your orders.
