McPherson conversion?
Ummm....
Can you elaborate? WTF is a shock conversion? Sounds like something you do to someone you rescued from a cult.
Track Dog Racing is the local Miata crack dealer
Now that's just damn funny right there.Quote:

Go to the dealer and price out those parts. They can order them and receive them in a week.Quote:

Doesn't the FM kit include new bumpstops? That might make a difference, depending on what you are installing.
^Good catch - FM does include them in the $200 kit.
They also sell them separately @ $50 per 2.

In addition to the one pictured above, there's a good discussion here - http://www.dfwmiata.com/threads/17159-Budget-Bumpstops which recommends Honda 51722-SE0-003, though I've seen 51722-SR0-003 mentioned in a number of other threads on the subject.
Thanks,

^Some good info here....

great support here, thx everyone for the info.
I used to recommend the Honda bump stops because they were cheap and always available.Quote:
