Looks nice, but the rear wheel looks to sucked in or something I don't know, and needs a roll bar.

Damn you Eric, makes me want to do my original idea. :/

Yeah, needs either a better offset or more tire, the side skirt doesn't help the visual effect any either. More tire will come with the power upgrades that are down the road. Oh, and rollbar is being ordered in the group buy. I've been constantly nagging him about that. lol

Damn you Eric, makes me want to do my original idea. :/

I think the new direction is the best idea. Seriously. You'll enjoy it more. :D

hey i know that car!... thanks for postin the pics Rip. looks good. can't wait to have the black rollbar to compliment the lip and wing. i like the way my wheels tilt, sure helps around sharp turns at high speeds, but more tire would look nice, especially with the flares i want.

The way your wheels tilt???

oh sorry... my negative camber sir. i like it. it's not rediculous and useless like some cars have and i don't like a (0) offset wheel.

Looks like the smaller Type II flares. Looks good. Is that local?

lol those flares need only be run if your wheel/tire combo is going to fill them out other wise you look like a lifted truck with undersized tires.... awkward lol.

but i do love the pics, car looks great!

Running in a class just because no one else is in it, is not racing. :lol:

That's the OEM wing. I don't have any shots focusing on it though. I'll have to snag a few. Maybe while I'm at work tomorrow. :ninja:

i never saw the wing that wasn't color matched. not sure if it would look good or not on a nb

I think black accents work well on clean white Miata's, this is a very fine NB example. :)

It does look good. Especially with the black front lip.

What's the difference in DP and XP? In the rule book it says Miata DP at least it did in 07. I haven't ran autocross in forever. Sweet do run DP next time I race so I can have competition.

Wing looks awesome. Do they make them for NA's?
RotorNutFD3S
03-17-2009, 08:17 PM
Not that style per se, that's an NB style only. The closest for NAs are the r-package lip spoilers.

very nice NB! i've seen it around Newnan a few times. Doppelganger's NB still cuts the phuckin pie though. I kind of like the front lip on Kris now that I can see it still-shot. That may be my next add. Summer landscape hours $$ FTW!!!

great lookin car but the lip clashes with the side skirt. now im sure the skirts would look gay if they were black but maybe you should have the lip color matched or take the skirts off n paint the flaps black too that way you have some black accent all around the car maybe even consider puttin flaps up front too. i had all 4 flaps flat black on my car and i loved how the car looked now im only rocking the front ones.
