got my p5 back!! looks good as new.
However, after driving the miata around for a while, I can't but notice my p5's clutch is utter s****...I'm gonna have to fix that soon. Have any of you ever done it yourself? I can do plenty of stuff but I've never pulled the motor...
Well my p5 has been at the body shop for over a week now, I should get it back tomorrow which I am happy about.
On another note, I got my p5 a family member... :)

Yeah I normally park in a driveway but we had visitors staying at my place so I parked in the street... Yeah I got his info, he lives down the street. Driving too fast most likely and hit an ice patch then slid into my car.
Get the twm. I had the megan ss a long time ago, the design is terrible. It uses snap rings to hold the assembly together. After a week of owning it, the snap ring broke, and my shifter fell through the floor and rested on my resonator.
did I mention get the twm? It's amazing.
Thanks, exactly the info I was looking for. They don't seem that difficult to replace, though my car being a northern car that could mean the most simple job will take 5 hours because of locked up bolts.
On another note, have any of you replaced your control arms? I can tell me ball joints are in bad shape (the rubber looks torn) and pretty sure they are making some chattering noise. I am thinking about ordering some off of rock auto today for 50 bucks a pop.
thanks!
I believe I bought the same one Bastian has linked. Like bikingpro5 has stated, the panel was only 35 bucks but the work is time consuming. I would have never paid to get this done as it would have cost me at least 1k.
been working on my worst panel yesterday and today...I am almost done and pretty happy with the results.
