So I bought this on a whim, always liked them, no definite plans for it so no rush, going to pick up a few bits over the next few months. It will be getting coilovers, full paint job and wheels.

Here is how I got her day 1 :

Got a lend of some Image Wheels of Kieran but they are too wide (Can't believe I said that) but the plan for this car is not over fenders as opposed to my other motors. So they have to come off again but are for sale if anyone is interested 14x8 & 14x9 PCD 4x100.

I then picked up a new splitter for the front of her :

And source some sidesteps too :

For now I bought some 14" Enkei's as I need to use this as my new daily while the Altezza goes away to get a new engine, wheels and kit.http://i628.photobucket.com/albums/uu5/Kruizer_666/Low%20and%20Slow%20MX5/0008_zpscgzdpeir.jpg

A little bit of fun first though, before I went on Holidays I needed a dog house for outside for our dogs so with the Altezza away and no van I decided the MX5 was up to the 1 mile task :happy)

I bought this but the quality and lines are pretty poor so I am going to chop it up and make it the way I want :

Then I went a bit made and bought brand new Work Meister S1's in 15x9 -2 offset all round :

Quick update on this, I sold off the turbo kit I had as we are going to use it as a base car for conversion kits. Basically build all new subframes that will bolt in and support the 1UZ V8, SR20DET and F20C conversion. :)

Cheers dude, had two lads test fit the wheels to their car just to see what they looked like LoL :)

Selling that spoiler too, needs to be more slick than prick ;)
