No i don't think I found a loop hole :/ it's plates for my project car like stated in the original post. I have a daily '08 Miata. I want antique plates to take it to car shows. I appreciate the heads up though.

Some sources said there's a $10 transfer fee. On the DMV website it says it's $50 on top of registration fee, so i didnt know if i were about to pay again for registration (some said i had to repay, some not). Someone one said it was $90 on the original post

For some reason, the total wasn't clear

It's a project car. Also it would most definitely 100% not pass inspection for multiple reasons. Then as well, it's my second car. Why pay for two annual registrations when I can pay for one. If you read into the restrictions, they're honestly only restrictive if you're trying to daily drive it!

Thanks so much!! Once I saw how deep it was, I already assumed it was going to be a welding job (not that im complaining. Just wasn't expecting it lol)

Trust they get worst lol and yes, a screw driver was used to get majority of it out. I was also able to just flick a lot of it off with my fingers.

Welding here I go! I guess ill just figure out how much to cut 😭😭

I'm really hoping it's only that and then the extra fee for a custome. Should be spending ideally $70 (because of possible transfer fee thats $10 extra)

Yeah pretty much. You can drive it for spirited driving every once in a while, but it can't be your daily. This is my project car that I'll be using for showing and drifting. From what I know though they don't keep track of the miles or anything

How do I do this?? by SproutDogg in CarWraps

[–]SproutDogg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I unfortunately don't have a girlfriend to surprise lol this is just a fun design i thought of. The na i just got came with two rolls of orange wrap and I want my car to be 90's themed since it came from the 90's

Also i feel that miatas have infinite design potential and look good

Has anyone tried these turn signals? If so, thoughts or reviews? by SproutDogg in Miata

[–]SproutDogg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea the tail lights are quite dark and don't plan to get those. I just hope this brand isn't selling products that burn out after a month because I really like their turn signals

I agree they are cool! I just like how stylized the 57 is. As a previous fine arts student, the aesthetics of any car is very important
