What have you done to your Miata today?

first time i got all the bolts except two rusted round bolts (one of which was the very back bolt on the parcel shelf
So night one removed all but 2 bolts
attempt 2 saw me with a dremel (but without a cutting wheel-instead has course sanding discs) which did remove rusted bolts, but didn't have enough to cut up the rest of the shelf in teh way of the rollbar
So tonight i have an angle grinder and drill with bits needed

i LOVE mine!!
I do have one question though. i did not realize installation actually set the scoop down into the rubber, i set it just ontop and didn't use the velcrow and seems to flow more air than proper install and holds better than velcrow install too
BUT, not at highway speeds, they don't hold at all then.

It's the Harddog Ace bar so it sits further back than all the other harddog bars
Please post a SIDE pic please.
Want some CF mirrors? 1 needs some tlc, but I'll let em go for cheap.
just crack the window and set the air to fresh air intake...hit the defroster to clear out the windows and its money.
I actually had to park the yata inside just now (it was out for a few hours while I packed boxes into a pick up truck)...snow snow snow!!

I recently rebuilt the exhaust to knock down the sound levels a touch. For years, I've been knocking at the door of exceeding the local (and national) limit. This should take the car down a few dB's to an acceptable level.
Furthermore, I've been wanting to explore the realm of aerodynamics. I am therefore at the early stages of building a front air dam/splitter as well as a rear spoiler to meet the Street Prepared rule set. Preliminary construction will consist of plywood but the final product, if feasible, will be constructed of Alumilite and/or ABS.
I have assembled a microcontroller circuit as well as logging software to perform measurement/logging of [differential]pressures at various points on the aero as well as measuring suspension loading at various speeds. I have no idea as to if any of this will work, but it's an entertaining project at the very least
