you can still take your hardtop off, even with the extension kit. Just a pain in the ass. I do love my hardtop though!!

So..how awful is it to run the first kit, with a pretty much stock motor lol. Is that "rice"?

Well my plan for this car..is to lock the rear and get seriously into AUTOX and drifting.
Im debating on boosting it, or getting the first kit i posted. I already have coilovers, full exhaust and an intake on the way. I dont know..im torn on what to do. I want it all!!

Id just get a nice lip kit all around, and some small flares if you really want to run a wider wheel, and leave them riveted. The stuff you posted just looks excessive, almost ricey IMO





More my style

I hate kitted cars, but I love every Miata that's been posted. That first red one looks phenominal.

CN: I really, really like those. Caged drop-tops are FTW.

Flip up headlights are awesome...but i'll be doing Low Profile ones. They only raise up about half as much as they currently do

I like the kit, but not the top extension. I think it would look better with just the regular hard top. Maybe a hood with the RE Amemiya style vents on it. Might look bad ass.

My suggestion

Small OEM-type spoiler, Racing Beat lip kit (or body kit if you really want), Raise up the car a tad, 15" wheels (like the ones you showed me yesterday), take the rear panel and debadge and black it, turn signal vents in flat black, and other little stuff...I don't have the patience to look through the Moss Miata catalog and flip through the hundreds of ricey ass parts they stock for Miatas so just post **** here. www.miata.net and go to the marketplace, look through the different sites on there and see if anything catches your fancy

or not, since my 2 cents dont seem to mean anything...do whatever you want.
