Chris, were the carbon bits from carbon miata?
Also what dials you got on it?
Mazda MX5 Turbo - hoodedreeper - 25-02-2021
Yup all the carbon (except the Bonnet) is from Carbon Miata
The current black dials are from Rlawton-Designer on Nutz
Thank you for all the feedback so far,really appreciate it

Pic of the dials? No idea why you got rid of the lockwoods but their new home appreciates them very muchly

With the classic dash the white ones didnt look quite right,so i went for a more classic look to help compliment it

Collected another wing today to replace the passenger side as that one was rotten at the bottom. As the car is too low for the arch roller to fit onto,i rolled it the ghetto way (the same way i done it the past 2 times).
Well,all was going well untill the metal decided to split and the wing had took quite a beating. So the wing got fitted and i offered up the front Wide Arches. After lots of measuring and checking/double checking/triple checking,the beaten metal would be cut away.
Unfortunately i dont have any photos of this part. I've read on the net that the fronts dont need to be cut. But as the previous wing was being caught on the wheel (even after rolling it) the best solution was to cut it.

Suprisingly they were quite easy to fit,lets hope the rears arent too much hassle to do. They'll be getting painted Sunday as we're supposed to be having good weather (for a change!)

Looking good mate, you smoothing them in at all?
Mazda MX5 Turbo - Dark Samurai - 28-02-2021
Stav, when you own an MX5, it's the law you don't smooth them in! https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=mx5+wide+arches&aq=f&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hl=en&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=HYtmUYnPJcHBPLDfgagF&biw=1280&bih=603&sei=HotmUculL8KkO7j4gKAD
Looking good, Chris!
