MARC!..I may be able to help on this IF I can get my gauges mounted to another position.(been unhealthy lately..trying to get back to normal...slow process)
I have one of those 3 gauge Idiot pods,so I could perhaps let you "borrow it" to make molds.

I'm in love with the sills and the dmax hood. Couldn't make a decision on the other body panels unless I saw them on a car, but I'd be willing to do a test run.

Gauge Pod

If you manage to replicate the gauge pods, I'd be interested in one also!

I'm still up for those Odula style side step skirts.

Can we get a new group buy thread and how much shipping will be in FG and CF and maybe CK? If there are still fc ballers out there. lol

Yeah forgot to snap a picture of the inner skin! It's a perfect copy of the OEM door with all the recessed areas and door hinges.

Not yet!!! I am starting to hate RHDjapan. I ordered quite a few bits from them (at awfully high prices) and got a set of flares for Miata last week. Paid 600 USD for these and fitment and quality is crappy (side by side, flares don't have the same length, width nor thickness!!!). They are supposed to be made by a japanese company but I checked them carefully and they are definitely made in China. I tried to get my money back or at least a discount. Showed them pictures of the flares not fitting etc... and all they managed to say is that they also have pictures from the manufacturer and on their pictures it fits so there must be a problem on my car...
