A bit of a paint will get the light surrounds looking good. Might have to chop up my rocker cover then, want a certain part exposed. I'm going to try and get down for the Sprayday, but it depends on what work is like etc. Fingers crossed though. Oh yeah, I've made that mistake before, I know that I'm going to want to look back on this one though, step by step.

Are the wheel shadows added afterwards? Looks tidy for an old 'un.

How do you know it kent, be interested in knowing some of its history. Matt, na, its just an awful camera. It is very tidy, no rust at all, needs some scratches and dents sorting, but that's too be expected. I just got a big dose of inspiration from this.  |

A rear end stance like the red one is the eventual plan, think it might take a while though. Build thread coming this Wednesday.

I think the mx5's Elan inspired body would look really good with a mix between classic colours and modern stance etc.  RAWR! |

The more I drive it, the more that sounds like a good plan, the interior is definitely getting a retro vibe.

Thanks for posting that up - I've been wondering for a while what an MX5 would look like on TH Lines. I've been watching them on eBay.de for a month or so and they go for a lot less than they do in the UK and I was tempted with a set of 9" x 15" the other day....but the thought of maintaining them on a daily kinda put me off.
Seeing them on an MX5 confirms what I thought....that they look the biz! I'd like to see them a bit wider than that (esp on the rear) but overall they look amazing.

I'm of the same thinking when it comes to TH Lines, such a gorgeous wheels, but at the same time, such high maintenance, especially through winter. I'm considering RSL Cults at the moment, in 14xwide flavour.

 Are they Allycats? |

They sure look like it. Guess who has some 8x13" ones at the unit (not for sale though  ) They are 4x108 anyway....but having a whole set of six of them, I think you can guess what they are reserved for ;D |

Haha, I know exactly what they're for and I can't wait to see them on. I'm really surprised at how good they look on that Roadster. There's so many options for wheels, too much choice in a way haha.

they are indeed alleycats, and you can buy them newin 13x8's  def in 4x4", think MWS do them in 4x100 as well prob with 13's on a MX is that you need to run them V low yet they don't look 'that' low (and you can only do it on a 1.6 as well). I was very tempted with teh 13" OZ F1's that gaz has (ex formula ford) for mine before I got the bandies done |
