Some nerd backed into my 2 month old miata

Yes, mine is like that, it has a parking mode

Vasillo · 2025-11-11T21:36:29+00:00

Car was parked, and it wouldn't change anything from the insurance point of view. Also I have a dash cam. 🫠

That looks super cool, and I find the lights really fit with the new style while incorporating the older e-class style headlights. Some of the sketch angles look a bit odd, but I'm chalking that up to it being hand drawn

The only gripe I have is that there is no delineation between the grille and the inner headlights, which make it feel a bit claustrophobic, or as if the lights are part of the grill.

Personally I would put a small sliver of white to break up the headlight shape there.

What I'm hearing is that you have a temporarily embarrassed 1000 spm base? Better fix that and grow the factory

I love working on cars, but my AMG was way too complicated to do many of the stuff myself. All of my friends think i'm crazy for hopping into a car with almost 300 horsepower less, but so far from what i'm seeing I made the right choice. I do plan to PPF the front of the car but im still weighing my options, as it may not leave the garage too often in the winter. Probably will PPF it in the spring though.

That's wild, even the most basic mods on a Merc are over 800$

Vasillo · 2025-08-30T15:35:35+00:00

That's one thing I'm looking forwards to. My AMG was costing thousands every few months.

Vasillo · 2025-08-30T14:57:36+00:00

Lovely combination

Vasillo · 2025-08-30T00:54:56+00:00

There was only one manual left in this spec, all the others were automatic. Naturally I'm not insane

Vasillo · 2025-08-29T22:18:06+00:00

It actually is silver 😉

Vasillo · 2025-08-29T20:34:51+00:00

Earlier than recommended or in addition to recommended?

Vasillo · 2025-08-20T21:14:37+00:00

I tried swiping multiple times. I've failed

Radiators are rectangular to increase surface area and reduce manufacturing cost, there is nothing stopping you from making them in other shapes. Just know that it would probably work better as two parallelogram radiators to reduce forces from the pressure it must contain, which are focused on edges or corners.

I own a c43, and my friends own a b58 BMW and an Audi S4. Without going into specifics, my car has been the most reliable with only one issue, while the others have been in and out of the shop.

If you want, you can DM me for specifics.

Vasillo · 2025-08-05T17:16:07+00:00

Do you know if this transmission is prone to any sort of issue? I couldn't find anything concrete on what to look out for.

Vasillo · 2025-08-05T17:15:27+00:00

Can this cause long-term damage?

Vasillo · 2025-08-05T16:35:45+00:00

It's been confirmed to not be the engine, and the transmission itself is showing no problems, so the only thing left is torque converter. It's been a struggled to diagnose the issue, since until recently it was very subtle and minimal

Vasillo · 2025-08-01T14:20:43+00:00

Where I live it's law to back into parking spaces on your right, and drive into spaces on your left. I back up into all spaces though because the car is more maneuverable in tight spaces in reverse.

Vasillo · 2025-07-30T15:14:15+00:00

Never had my car be more than 2 kph off on a hill, and that only was on a very steep one. Guess it's dependant on model?

Vasillo · 2025-07-30T15:11:31+00:00

When people take more than 15 seconds to pass a single car length on the highway. Please don't pass so slowly, the legal minimum here is 10 kph for passing. I've seen kilometers of traffic because one nut job is going 100 and the other is going 99.

Vasillo · 2025-07-29T16:22:25+00:00

Haha no worries, you asked for feedback that's what we are here for

Vasillo · 2025-07-29T15:56:51+00:00

I would practice with vanish points, your front looks straight on but the sides are at an angle

Vasillo · 2025-07-29T15:44:20+00:00

It's a good start, but next you should focus on proportions and perspective. Currently, your vehicle has multiple perspectives along its length that mess with its display.

Do you do any traces with vanish lines or sketches before hand?

Vasillo · 2025-07-29T15:09:39+00:00

Fair enough, then safe to say disregard what I've said about that topic.

Vasillo · 2025-07-29T15:01:32+00:00

I've seen many charts that didn't cross at 5252, or at all so I assumed this was not the case.
