I envy the car man!

Man they look awesome... I wish you would've done it sooner so I could get the idea for the new lenses before I closed them up haha I still need to post my pic on Insta though

Haha yeah I've been sitting on them for a while. Needed to get some other issues with the car worked out first.

Oh ok, thanks!

Happy to help!

Looks awesome, but you already knew that. No matter what you do to your car, it's still clean. Liking the split halo. Nice work

Lights came out good! Nice work.

Got my Miata Nardi back from Craft Customs aka American stitches. New black leather with red baseball stitching. Goes really nicely with the AutoExe shift knob.

I have that same wheel in my FD, but without the custom stitching. 99 Miata? Looks killer. A couple guys at the RX-7 club were able to swap the CC pod and make it work...I'll see if I can find a link.

Nicest P5 in the country. (first)

How much did they charge to restitch the wheel?

Not sure which year Miata, as I know they had different ones with the Nardi on the bag and wheel. No need to swap the CC pod since I eliminated CC, so not having the pod makes things that much cleaner

Thanks Nate!

$250 plus shipping

Any updates man? Your P5 is what really lead me to go out and buy one of my own. So clean!

Actually yes! And thank you!

Got the false floor in the hatch all done. here's a progression of the build.

Also, I pulled the IM to see if I could find a vacuum leak and proceeded to snap one of the bolts holding the IM together. Thankfully I was able to get it out and will be getting it back together soon. Hopefully that is the cause of the vacuum leak (cross-threaded but the threads in the IM are still clean).

Since I deleted the wipers and motor (front and rear), fluid reservoir, and lines to the hood, I deleted the stalk in the column too. Used an old iPhone case made out of real carbon fiber, cut it to fit, and glued it in.

 

[YELLOWMAZDAPR5]

I love it.

Jw, what do you do when it rains? Lol

 

[agr99]

Rain-x..

Looks good! (thumb) I don't think I've ever seen someone delete their stalk when they delete their wiper system. I dig it.

I don't drive it. Lucky CA is in the middle of the worst drought in its history LOL.

I think I've seen one or two others do it, but yeah it made sense to me. Thanks!
