Vampire Miata?

From the :batman:

This guy is worried now that his friend commented that the car looks like a vampire with the new fogs.

Another poster commented that it actually looks like Mike Tyson, which is even funnier.

In either event, the look isn't quite "right". Also, why add more lights to a 2001+ Miata? The projector beams on mine already get me in trouble with other drivers... :?

Nothing says riceboy like multiple sets of foglights. :mrgreen:

I agree with the projector beam comment - tailchaser followed me part of the way home from last Sunday's autocross, and I had to dim my rearview mirror, because his damn projectors were blinding me. :?

Sorry about that... I was trying to give you plenty of room... If you still had the ice cream truck trailer, you wouldn't have that problem, though. :-)

In Mazda's defense, though, I think I need to check the aim on my lights. I think the rake may have changed enough to get them pointing just a touch high. Sure can see better, though...

The FM springs lower the rear a little more than the front, so your lights are now pointing up. :pirat: I believe that there is a stock rake that FM levels out.

Glad to know it's not just my overactive imagination... something else to do tonight...

Yep... you can see the rake difference in this picture.

You can see it even better when you can actually see driving at night... or when the rear-view mirror is more in the way than before...

What are you doing looking in the rearview mirror anyhow? What's behind you doesn't matter... :lol: :wink:
