Street/Drift mazda mx5!!!

Hello chaps,

this was a fairly quicky build, although I got very lazy in between building it.
Wanted another model to add to my little collection.
Mods are as follows

Suspension lowered and cambered to fit new wheels. (Yet to stretch rear tyre somehow but leaving it for now even though it looks a little unrealstic!!)
Exhaust sytem chopped and modified for new shotgun (single barrel) style exhaust
Tinted rear lights, rear window and front indicator lenses with Tamiya smoke.
Custom front lip.
Tow strap
Drivers bucket seat with harness
Dished steering wheel
JDM dildo gear knob
grip tape on handbrake with drift button
Roll bar
Random stickers

Here's the pics, I hope you like it as I do!!! ( the pics are pretty awful, sorry!)

Tough crowd. I get the feeling everyone surfs the site on their phones these days and it is hard to reply from phones.
I like the concept better than the model. The rear rims really need to fit in the tires better. There are a couple of cars around here that look like your model though.

Re: Street/Drift mazda mx5!!!

cheers mate, I just find it a bit insulting that everyone else seemed to have at least one or 2 comments, and I was the only one to have 0. Oh well, shouldnt let it get to me. Ive explained about the tyres haha I know it looks silly atm, they will be streched one way or another some point soon, just need to find an efective way of doing so.

Hey Taz! I just logged on but I LOVE this!! I really dig the stance. The first few pictures are a bit dark so I can't tell much on my monitor. You've done a great job of making it look legit!
