my daily driven miata. its a 92 LE that came with pristine condition BBS's that i didnt want to drive on daily so i found a wrecked pair for cheap that i restored and repainted.

 

Before she met the concrete barrier at a track:

 

Here are some original black FCs

unek87 thats pretty dope. did you do that crinkle paint urself? i wanna see detailed photos of the whole car lol.

 

thats a crazy looking paint job. i like it though

 

Is that crinkle paint or rhino lining?

 

 

Lol, Mine's also has a white hood:

 

That sunroof, its pretty cool.

 

Haha... My hood is bare aluminum, soon to be full polished.

 

Sounds cool... But when the sun comes through the trees and the glare blinds you on one of those scenic mountain passes, you'll have plenty of time to think about what could have been while you wait for a tow truck

 

It's not any different from driving a silver metallic/white car with a nice shiny paint finish.

 

Then we have different definitions of "full polished" lol. I have never seen any car (aside frome the chrome-dipped Tron edition audi r8) that was remotely close to the luster of a properly polished aluminum part, and I'm pretty sure that isn't driven daily. Polishing w/spit and steel wool would yield a finish similar to a silver painted hood, but a proper polishing w/ appropriate running compounds would look more like your wheels, which I would imagine catch a bit more light.

 

I've ridden a fully chrome (all body panels) VROD. I can tell you this, he will have to wear sunglasses every time he drives if that is getting a full polish. If the glare off of the front fender and tank of a bike can be that bad, the hood of an FC will reflect a lot of light.

 

Lots of ricer talk.

 

^^ grips a genius.

 

What, the RISING SUNroof? Yeah it grabs a lot of attention.

 

 

Love my black fc.
But refently realized black and baby blue rims don't go togethrr

 

Furb looking mean as usual

 

Furb, that car is WAYYY to clean to be on that track. Love it.

 

Thnx
I already decided not to compete in the Dutch Time-Attack series anymore..
Regulations changed and that means i have to install a roll-cage considering my laptimes.
I like trackdays, but most important for me is that i can take it out for a weekend trip or even holiday if i want to.
Putting in a roll-cage will take the fun out of it, and i like the interior

 

agreed. i bought mine with one installed and my girlfriend already hates it. im still working on getting in and out the car so i dont know how i could ever convince her to lol.

and for the record.. sexy 7.. def the type of car i was looking to see lol
