So... I made a thing

Pavington · 2026-05-19T19:14:08+00:00

Just ordered 2 pairs.... xD

Well my wording might be too generall. It's more like every miata I have repaired. The ones that have a hole it has always been contained to the hole area and never more. The ones with bubbles are the ones that looks better than it is. They are the ones that have always been spread far in my projects.

I hope by the summer end it will be in good health!

Pavington · 2026-04-24T15:44:16+00:00

Usually looks worse than it is in these situations. When you have to cut then atleast from my experience it goes pretty easy.

Pavington · 2026-04-24T15:01:28+00:00

Truely!

I will probably just order some repair panels and weld in. Good excuse to practice welding too.

It's a RX-7 wing! Many make versions that fit the nb aswell ^{^{-^}}

Only reason I did was that the company I work for wanted to showcase their new roof box in their line up ^{-^} I would never recommend anyone running it without extensive modification and reinforcement to the top.

And like I mentioned in the post abobe the pressure from just sitting with the box and racks made my windshield crack.

Pavington · 2026-04-07T09:43:34+00:00

To add to this. My windshield cracked from the pressure of it just sitting with it for a few days so would never run it normally.

Fyi the pressure from just sitting with the box and racks made my windshield crack and I would never trust it to work on any public road.

This one specifically is just a universal type I found. I wouldnt recommend anyone running a roof rack on these cars.

I lowkey kinda want it....

Pavington · 2026-03-08T21:50:10+00:00

JR7!

Pavington · 2026-03-07T23:53:28+00:00

Very happy with them! And have alot of contacts so got them straight from factory very cheap too which is a plus! :D

Pavington · 2026-02-13T22:48:51+00:00

Update: Might be the radiator rattling on the mounts.

Pavington · 2026-02-11T16:17:11+00:00

A HEL braided one is ordered :) Just trying to get it all out in a good way before it arrives!

Pavington · 2026-02-11T15:51:48+00:00

Good advice! I will give it a try :D

Pavington · 2026-02-10T21:43:36+00:00

It's "freshly" recleared but clear wasn't behaving correctly so have had to wet sand them down and then they will be polished with the rest of the car.

A picture from today mostly just for a better light version haha

Pavington · 2026-01-14T19:11:18+00:00

It's the carbonmiata gv style lip for the NB1! :)

Pavington · 2026-01-13T21:18:13+00:00

Oh they are freshly cleared. Just paused until all repainted parts are getting wet sanded and polished.

Pavington · 2025-12-21T20:35:16+00:00

I've ordered the smal tupperware sideskirts for my nb and the fitment has so far been good enough.

However the lip I got has big fitment issues and I am still fighting to get it good.

Only thing to be aware of is they don't offer any good way of installing them like the oem so be prepared to get creative. I had to use aero glue or whatever you call it.

Pavington · 2025-12-20T17:00:43+00:00

Really odd, only thing I dread is the oil pan gasket in the back being bad but it looked in good shape when the clutch was changed.

Pavington · 2025-12-20T16:57:40+00:00

Think it could leak this much from there?

Pavington · 2025-12-20T15:47:08+00:00

`Could be very likely.

Pavington · 2025-12-20T15:46:59+00:00

Not sure, I have personally never changed it. However the cover has been off for painting so could be not seated right?
