    Default Took some Pics, thought I'd share :)

    Alright, finally got around to taking a buncha pictures of my car all shined up.

    Pay no attention to the construction. Pay attention to the rollbar

    Pics of rx7gslse's MSM MX5

    WOW... very nice! A couple of questions:
    • 1) Is that a Track Dog Splitter I see? Good idea to get one of those on as soon as possible to protect your front spoiler before it gets scrapped up (like mine ).
      2) Is that a chrome rollbar, or is it painted/powdercoated? It looks fantastic, and you did a nice/clean job of installing it -- particularly trimming the plastic bits.
      3) If it is powdercoating, where did you get it done? And if you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost?
    The only thing that would concern me is how the seats are actually under the rollbar. I'm guessing those seats have been pushed all the way back, and for a... vertically challenged... person like me (I'm only 5'8"), it wouldn't be an issue. But for someone 6' or over, it doesn't look like they'd actually fit.

    Great job!

    1) nope. no splitter, that's the stock MSM front spoiler with teh little "winglets" liek that.. I doubt a standard splitter would fit that bumper.

    2) I actually ordered teh rollbar unfinished and had my paint guy paint it to match the Titanium exterior of the car. Cost just under $300 to do that (still cheaper than chrome, and different from everyone else)

    3) yeah, those are the taller seats from the later M2s so you really see where headspace coudl be an issue. I'm 5 11 or so and fit fine... anyone with a super tall torso or over about 6 1 or 2 woudl be able to thwack their head with the seat in that position.

    Thanks for the compliments guys :)
