    Default Just a small change

    No more pinstripes! Oh and I busted out the clay bar today too. Sorry for the crappy pic, it's late and I have to open. It's gonna get a coat of wax after work tomorrow.

    Looks good....though, the quality is questionable.

    I honestly don't remember the pinstripe. I have only seen your car once in person.

    Smart move... I've always felt that a Miata is no place for pinstripes.

    This came out wrong. The quality on the camera is questionable. Thought I would clarify.

    Just finished up the coat of wax. I think it looks pretty good.

    An old credit card and some goo gone. The driver's side took about an hour. It came off in a million tiny little pieces and left a ton of gunk on my car. However, the pasenger side literally in one big piece with no gunk on my car. Wierd.

    I'd love to, I owe you. I'll be down for the September and October SCCA events. Not sure if I'll have time to do your car though.

    Looks much better. 99-00 Miatas look naked without it.
    ...and across the line.

    I think my car looked goofy with side skirts, but no front lip.

    Yeah... I kinda felt that way from the first time I saw a pic of your car. I decided not to say anything because I didn't want to burst your bubble. Glad you finally put things right.
