Also, your FD and NB combo is great. Dream combo. Perfect trackday car with the miata, and the FD is just dream car status (for me and many others like me).
the fd was suppose to be the fun track car! but the build toook a loooong time... to the point where at its current state its too expensive and high risk factor to track for me.

thank you!! first track day booked nov 9!! i've been driving the car around every weekend when time allows! your gonna hate the next post because i had to remove the nb1 headlight lol. the light output is amazing and the kit is packaged very well! however the driver side the ballast takes about 4-6 turns to finally stay on on. the outer lenses is also weathered and showing some yellowing and stress.

if anyone is looking for the left lane design set nb1 light lmk! $350 shipped



I always felt the nb1 front end is just not aggressive enough for the miata.bodyline so nb2 facelift was always the something I had planned from the very beginning.

i ended up picking up a damaged mazdaspeed bumper , repaired the cracks , sprayed the bumper in my front yard with harbor freight paint gun and 1 pint of matching paint. (color is a little of because the original car is a bit faded , i will probably drop off to a real bodyshop one day and have the entire car repainted, but right now this will do)

bought a oem hardtop mostly because cosmetic reasons, the hardtop flows very well with the stock lines from the nb. The white A pillar was really bugging me , so some black gloss vinyl was used to blend the entire top black for that stealth look.

my wife wasn't too happy about me buying the miata, she said how come she cant have any fun toys . so she wanted a roadster of her own.



so we picked up this ap2 s2000 for her to play with. its pretty clean overall but needs lot of small annoying fixes.
